अथ व्यवस्थितान्दृष्ट्वा धार्तराष्ट्रान् कपिध्वजः। प्रवृत्ते शस्त्रसम्पाते धनुरुद्यम्य पाण्डवः। हृषीकेशं तदा वाक्यमिदमाह महीपते॥
atha vyavasthitan drishtva dhartarashtran kapidhvajah pravritte shastra-sampate dhanurudyamya pandavah hrishikesham tada vakyam idam aha mahipate
Translation
Then, seeing Dhritarashtra's men arrayed and the weapons about to clash, Arjuna, whose flag bore the emblem of Hanuman, took up his bow and spoke these words to Krishna.
Commentary
Arjuna's chariot bears Hanuman's emblem, symbolizing strength and devotion. The fact that he speaks to Krishna (Hrishikesha — master of the senses) shows that even the greatest warrior seeks divine guidance.
