Meaning
1.15: Hrisikesa blew His conch, Pāchajanya; Dhanajaya blew his conch, Devadatta; and Bhima the big eater and formidable doer of deeds blew his big conch, Paundra.
Hrisikesa is Lord Krishna, Dhananjaya is Arjuna and Virokdara [Bhima] is Arjuna’s sibling. Panchajanya, Devadatta and Paundram are the names of conches of the respective personas.
Bhima means ‘The Terrible’, and thus are the epithet Bhima and eponymous acts, Bhima Karma (= terrible deeds).
