Here the duty of the kshatriya calls to battle for the oppressed. It is significant that death in battle for what is right is named an honor, not a loss: it befits a warrior to meet weapons while defending the helpless. Thus the scripture reveals that courage in the defense of dharma is glory, not risk; and further — of the nearness of the hour of sacrifice.
