[Arjuna said:] "In battle, as I strike down enemies with streams of pure arrows, I notice ahead of me a man going, fire-radiant. Having raised a blazing trident, in whatever direction he turns, in that direction my enemies scatter and perish, O great sage. His feet do not touch the ground, and he does not let go of the trident; from that trident thousands of tridents burst forth by his splendor."

Arjuna describes an unseen companion — a fiery man with a trident, whose steps never touch the ground and before whom enemies scatter. His humility stands out: the victories credited to him are in fact wrought by Another walking ahead. The verse teaches that behind a hero's visible feat there often stands the hidden action of a higher power; an honest heart notices the one who truly fights on its behalf, and does not claim another's glory.
