"By your ill counsel, O king, and by what Duryodhana did — listen, becoming attentive, to what I shall tell you, O Bharata. They turned back again, having bound themselves by mutual oath, having taken the highest resolve in battle, by the command of your son. Three thousand horsemen led by Duryodhana — Shakas, Kambojas, Bahlikas, Yavanas and Paradas, Kunindas, Tanganas and Ambashthas, and Paishachas with Mandaras — rushed upon Shaineya, like moths upon a flame."

The warriors rush upon Satyaki "śalabhāḥ pāvakaṃ yathā", like moths upon fire: an image of a doomed onrush. It is telling that they themselves fly to their own destruction at the command of the instigator. The verse teaches that blind obedience to the unrighteous leads to certain death: as moths perish in the flame, drawn by its light, so those driven by the will of an unrighteous leader rush into the fire that will consume them.
