Shloka 6
या हास्य परमा शक्तिर्जयस्य च परायणम् | सा शक्तिर्वासुदेवेन व्यंसिता च घटोत्कचे,जो इसकी सबसे बड़ी शक्ति और विजयका आधार-स्तम्भ थी, उस दिव्य शक्तिको घटोत्कचपर चलवाकर श्रीकृष्णने व्यर्थ कर दिया
yā hāsya paramā śaktir jayasya ca parāyaṇam | sā śaktir vāsudevena vyaṃsitā ca ghaṭotkace ||
যি আছিল তাৰ পৰম শক্তি আৰু জয়ৰ মূল আশ্ৰয়, সেই দিৱ্য শক্তিক বাসুদেৱে (শ্ৰীকৃষ্ণে) ঘটোৎকচৰ ওপৰত প্ৰয়োগ কৰাই নিষ্ফল কৰি দিলে।
श्रीवायुदेव उवाच

Power and victory are not merely matters of force; they depend on discerning leadership that prioritizes the larger protection of dharma. The verse frames Kṛṣṇa’s intervention as a strategic and ethical decision: neutralizing a decisive weapon by redirecting it, even when that entails painful sacrifice.
Vāyu-deva explains that the enemy’s greatest victory-securing weapon (the Śakti) was made to be used on Ghaṭotkaca through Vāsudeva’s strategy. Once spent, it could no longer serve its intended, more decisive purpose later in the war.
