Those two, O great king, unleashed upon each other a most terrible rain of weapons — enraged arrow-throwers, resembling Yama and Antaka. Those two, showering each other with arrows, O king, stood in battle, and for a moment that battle seemed as though equal. Then Śaineya, enraged, O great king, as though laughing, severed in battle the bow of the great-souled Kauravya. Then, with his bow cut, he pierced him in the heart instantly with nine sharp arrows and cried: "Stay, stay!"

For a moment the fight seems equal — but balance in combat is short-lived; the scales tip slightly, and it collapses. It is telling that Sātyaki cuts down his enemy's bow "as though laughing": beneath the apparent poise of forces, the outcome was already ripening. The verse teaches that the seeming equality of combatants is deceptive and fleeting; in every struggle a moment comes when one side outweighs the other, and whoever perceives that moment and masters himself turns a precarious balance into victory.
