Explanation

On the first day of the Kurukshetra war, the Pandavas organized their army in the Vajravyuha (diamond/thunderbolt formation). This was a strong defensive formation. Chakravyuha and Padmavyuha are the same formation (lotus/web), which Arjuna later had to counter when Abhimanyu was trapped. Makaravyuha (crocodile formation) was used on other days.
