«Padmānām iva saṃghātaiḥ… cakre nivedanam», 'made an offering as with heaps of lotuses': the poet beholds the severed heads as a sacrificial offering — lotuses laid upon the altar of battle. The image transforms horror into sacrifice. It is telling that battle is here understood as a sacrifice (raṇa-yajña), in which the fallen are the offerings. The verse teaches the Vedic vision of war as sacrifice: death in a righteous battle is not meaningless but is an offering, and the fallen, like lotuses at the altar, rise to what is higher; thus grief is stilled by the thought of the sacrificial meaning of death within dharma.
