English Meaning
The blowing of these different conchshells became uproarious. Vibrating both in the sky and on the earth, it shattered the hearts of the sons of Dhṛtarāṣṭra.
Commentary
When Bhīṣma and the others on the side of Duryodhana blew their respective conchshells, there was no heart-breaking on the part of the Pāṇḍavas. Such occurrences are not mentioned, but in this particular verse it is mentioned that the hearts of the sons of Dhṛtarāṣṭra were shattered by the sounds vibrated by the Pāṇḍavas’ party. This is due to the Pāṇḍavas and their confidence in Lord Kṛṣṇa. One who takes shelter of the Supreme Lord has nothing to fear, even in the midst of the greatest calamity.
Hinglish Commentary
Jab Bhīṣma aur Duryodhana ke taraf ke logon ne apne-apne shankh bajaye, tab Pāṇḍavon ke dilon mein koi gham nahi tha. Yeh baatein toh zyada nahi milti, lekin is verse mein yeh bataya gaya hai ki Dhṛtarāṣṭra ke putron ke dil to Pāṇḍavon ke shankh ki dhvani se tut gaye. Yeh sab Pāṇḍavon ki apne parameshwar Kṛṣṇa par vishwas ki wajah se hai. Jo vyakti parameshwar ki sharan leta hai, usse kisi bhi badi muskil mein dar nahi lagta.
Chinmaya Commentary
वें श्लोक से संजय पाण्डवों की सेना का विस्तृत वर्णन करता है। उसका यह विशेष प्रयास है कि किसी प्रकार धृतराष्ट्र पाण्डव सेना की श्रेष्ठता समझ सकें और युद्ध के विनाशकारी परिणामों को समझ कर इस भ्रातृहन्ता युद्ध को रोकने का आदेश भेजें।
