"Of Karna, Duryodhana and the rest, of Shakuni, son of Subala, a great chance was missed, my son -- and of yours in particular. For you knew that spear, ever unfailing in battle, irresistible and unbearable even by the gods, with Vasava [Indra] among them. Why was it not loosed by Karna, when the battle had earlier begun, at the son of Devaki [Krishna], or at Phalguna, O Sanjaya?"

Dhritarashtra returns again and again to the missed spear-cast: grief over the enemy's unrealized death will not let him go. It is telling that he blames "yours especially" -- Sanjaya -- as though a counselor could have turned aside fate. The verse teaches that an unquenched thirst for revenge stirs the mind with the same regret over and over; one who lives by a lost chance keeps reopening the wound, finding neither peace nor acceptance before what has already come to pass.
