Then Arjuna, having warded off Drona's clouds of arrows with his own, pressed Drona with arrows of terrible aspect, very great. And he pierced Drona in battle — having honored him, o lord of peoples, abiding by kshatriya dharma — again with nine arrows. Having cut his arrows with arrows, Drona pierced both, Krishna and the Pandava, with arrows like poison and blazing fire.

Even as he strikes his teacher, Arjuna 'anumānya… kṣatradharmaṃ samāsthāya,' honoring him and abiding by kshatriya dharma: he strikes only out of duty, not malice, and with reverence. It is telling that the fight is conducted within the bounds of dharma — a duel of duty, not enmity. The verse teaches that even unavoidable combat must be waged in purity: to strike an opponent while honoring him and not departing from dharma; and a battle in which reverence for a worthy foe does not fade remains righteous, for it is moved not by hatred but by each one's fidelity to duty.
