"All of them know the Vedas, all are brave, all keep righteous vows; they are modest, versed in policy, skilled in battle, adept with bow and weapon, and able to fight with every astra. But we need one who will become the leader of all seven armies, who knows their proper division, and who can withstand Bhishma in battle, like a blazing fire of arrows. Speak first, Sahadeva, and give your opinion here, descendant of Kuru, tiger among men: who is worthy to be our commander?" Sahadeva said: "King Virata of Matsya is bound to us, shares our sorrow, is strong and knows dharma; under his protection we sought our due share. He is mighty, trained in arms, and unrelenting in battle. In combat he will withstand Bhishma and those great chariot-warriors."

In this chapter the peace negotiations finally give way to the organizing of war. The Pandavas choose their military leader not out of pride but through counsel, experience, and trust in Krishna; their advance toward Kurukshetra is then described as orderly, sacrificially prepared, and surrounded by allies. Dharma shows itself here not as a refusal to act but as the right ordering of an inevitable duty.
