DAY 4

                                                                       D A Y - 4

                                              CHAPTER-1

SLOKA- 2 :-  Sanjaya answered thus:-

Looking at the assembled army of soldiers on the Pandavas' side, Duryodhana went swiftly towards Guru Dronacharya and stated :

SLOKA- 3:- Look at the mighty army of Panduputras ready for the battle and led by your wise pupil and the son of King Drupada- Drustadyumnya.

SUBTLE interpretation in Gita Bhashya /Vivruti:

Duryodhana deliberately mentions  to Dronacharya -"Drupada putra" and "your wise pupil"  (referring to Drustadyumna) in order to arouse his anger and animosity, as the Acharya had a long-standing grudge against King Drupada. Also as Drustadyumna had also been taught "Shastravidya" by the Acharya but now the same pupil has chosen to be on the other side, deciding to use the knowledge against his own guru. In this sloka- two meanings are derived -

1."Pasyaitam panduputranam, Acharya" (watch the mighty army of panduputras) and;

2."Pasyaitam, panduputranam  Acharya" (Look,  the guru of Panduputras - as Dronacharya had also taught the panduputras )
