Significance of Greater force

The concept of Greater force in Vedanta emphasizes the importance of certain textual interpretations that hold more authority in defining the celestial order. In contrast, Dharmashastra's use of Greater force pertains to military strategy, describing a situation where an enemy army surpasses one’s own in numbers, requiring specific tactical arrangements such as the needle or thunderbolt formations. Thus, the term encapsulates both philosophical interpretation and practical military strategy across different contexts.
