Then the charioteer drove slowly, abiding by the will of the Satvata, [on] the sun-colored chariot, shining, [with] a banner. Obedient to the charioteer, the best horses bore him, prancing [in vigor], equal to the wind's speed in battle, [with] the sheen of jasmine, moon, and silver. But that onrushing chariot, [with] the finest conch-colored horses, the heroes then surrounded with the elephant-array from every side.

Satyaki's chariot shines like the sun, its horses gleam with the purity of jasmine and moon: beneath the splendor lies the solemnity of a righteous advance. And yet it is surrounded on every side by the array of elephants. It is telling that shining valor at once draws the many upon itself. The verse teaches that light attracts darkness: the more visibly the valor of the righteous shines, the more the forces of wrong close in around it — but all the more glorious that a single flame stands amid the encircling gloom.
