Having thus spoken, the mighty-armed and greatly renowned [Bhurishravas], bearing the sacrificial-post banner, left Yuyudhana [Satyaki] and sat down on the battlefield in prāya [the vow of fasting unto death]. Strewing arrows with his left hand, marked with auspicious signs, wishing to depart to the world of Brahma, he offered his vital breaths as a sacrifice into the vital breaths. Fixing his gaze upon the sun, with his mind clear and immersed in the waters [of yoga], contemplating the great Upanishad, the sage became absorbed in yoga.

The maimed warrior turns his very dying into a sacrifice: strewing arrows in place of sacrificial grass, he offers the vital breaths into the vital breaths and departs in yoga. It is significant that the battlefield becomes an altar, and death itself an ascent: the inner disposition at the hour of death decides the soul's fate. The verse teaches that even a violent end, met with a mind fixed on the Supreme, becomes a gateway to liberation; it is not the circumstances of death but the consciousness at its moment that determines where the spirit departs.
