Shloka 78
न विद्यते व्यवस्थान क्रुद्धयो: कृष्णयो: क्वचित् । स्रष्टारी जगतश्वैव सततं पुरुषर्षभी,“श्रीकृष्ण और अर्जुनके कुपित होनेपर यह संसार कहीं टिक नहीं सकता; पुरुषप्रवर श्रीकृष्ण और अर्जुन ही निरन्तर जगत्की सृष्टि करते हैं
na vidyate vyavasthānaṁ kruddhayoḥ kṛṣṇayoḥ kvacit | sraṣṭārau jagataś caiva satataṁ puruṣarṣabhau ||
Sañjaya said: “When the two Kṛṣṇas—Kṛṣṇa and Arjuna—are enraged, there is nowhere in this world that can remain stable. Those foremost of men, Kṛṣṇa and Arjuna, are ever the very agents through whom the world is brought forth.”

Educational Q&A
The verse magnifies the extraordinary, world-shaping potency of Kṛṣṇa and Arjuna: when such dharma-aligned champions are provoked, ordinary structures cannot withstand them. Ethically, it underscores that immense power—especially when joined to righteous purpose—can overturn established order, and therefore must be approached with restraint and reverence.
Sañjaya, narrating the battlefield events to Dhṛtarāṣṭra, comments on the terrifying consequence of provoking Kṛṣṇa and Arjuna together. By calling them “the two Kṛṣṇas” and “creators of the world,” he frames their martial fury as not merely human anger but a force with cosmic implications for the war’s outcome.
