नभश्च पृथिवीं चैव तुमुलोऽभ्यनुनादयन् || 1.19||

sa ghoṣho dhārtarāṣhṭrāṇāṁ hṛidayāni vyadārayat
nabhaśhcha pṛithivīṁ chaiva tumulo abhyanunādayan

Shloka Translation

BG – Ch. 1- Ver. 19:

The thunderous sound echoed through the sky and earth, shattering the hearts of your sons. O Dhritarashtra,

Explanation

Even though the Pandavas army was a fraction of the Kauravas army, the sound of their conches was considerably louder and more enthusiastic than the Kauravas’. That boom revealed the Pandavas army’s commitment and preparation, & the faith they had that Dharma and Lord Krishna were on their side, which will make them win, instilling fear in the hearts of the Kauravas.

Verse & What we need to learn
