Vaishampayana said: "Hearing the word of Yudhishthira, all the bulls among men led by Bhimasena rose up with joyful faces. All the great charioteers put on impenetrable armor adorned with gold. Armed, on their chariots, with banners and bows, the Pandavas looked like blazing fires. Mounting their well-prepared chariots yoked to swift horses, the tigers among charioteers set out swiftly. When the Kaurava armies saw that the great charioteers, the sons of Pandu, had advanced together, a great roar arose. The victorious sky-wanderers and the swift great charioteers converged in that forest in a moment, unafraid. But all the victorious gandharvas turned back, seeing in battle the four hero Pandavas on their chariots. Seeing them shining like risen guardians of the world, the dwellers of Gandhamadana arrayed their army. At the word of the wise King Dharmaraja the Pandavas began the fight in measured, gentle fashion, but at that hour the dull-witted warriors of the king of the gandharvas could not be brought to what is better by gentleness."

The Pandavas go forth not for revenge but at the command of dharma. Even their fighting begins with measure and restraint.
