अस्त्रयुद्धे द्रौणिपार्थसंघर्षः — Karṇa’s Bhārgavāstra and the Search for Yudhiṣṭhira

Chapter 45

जो प्राचीन कालमें क्रमशः ब्रह्मा, रुद्र, इन्द्र और वरुणकी सवारीमें आ चुका था, उसी आदि रथपर बैठकर श्रीकृष्ण और अर्जुन शत्रुओंकी ओर बढ़े चले जा रहे थे ।। अथ तं रथमायान्तं दृष्ट्वात्यद्भुतदर्शनम्‌ । उवाचाधिरथिं शल्य: पुनस्तं युद्धदुर्मदम्‌,अत्यन्त अद्भुत दिखायी देनेवाले उस रथको आते देख शल्यने रणदुर्मद सूतपुत्र कर्णसे पुन: इस प्रकार कहा--

yaḥ prācīna-kāle kramaśaḥ brahmā-rudra-indra-varuṇānāṁ vāhanatām āgato ’bhūt, tasminn ādi-rathe niṣadya śrī-kṛṣṇaḥ pārthaś ca śatrūn prati prasthitau || atha taṁ ratham āyāntaṁ dṛṣṭvāty-adbhuta-darśanam | uvāca sūtaputraṁ karṇaṁ śalyaḥ punas taṁ yuddha-durmadam ||

Sañjaya said: That primeval chariot—once, in ancient times, borne in succession by Brahmā, Rudra, Indra, and Varuṇa—now carried Śrī Kṛṣṇa and Arjuna as they advanced toward the enemy. Seeing that chariot approaching, wondrous to behold, Śalya again addressed Karṇa, the charioteer’s son, intoxicated with the fury of battle.
