Significance of By himself
In Tibetan Buddhism, "By himself" signifies the pursuit of knowledge independent of external sources, particularly the Veda. In contrast, Vaishnavism interprets "By himself" as highlighting Bhadrasena's capability to tackle challenges solo, demonstrating personal strength within a collective competition. Additionally, it underscores the idea that the son carries out actions autonomously, without guidance from others. This concept of independence emphasizes both individual initiative and the ability to thrive without reliance on external influences.
