अध्याय १४८ — कर्णप्रभावः, धृष्टद्युम्नस्य विरथता, तथा घटोत्कच-आह्वानम्
Chapter 148: Karṇa’s Pressure, Dhṛṣṭadyumna Unhorsed, and the Summoning of Ghaṭotkaca
तत: सर्वाणि सैन्यानि विस्मयं जग्मुरुत्तमम् । वासुदेवं च बीभत्सुं प्रशशंसुर्महारथम्,तदनन्तर सारी सेनाएँ भारी आश्वर्यमें पड़ गयीं और सब लोग श्रीकृष्ण और अर्जुनकी प्रशंसा करने लगे
tataḥ sarvāṇi sainyāni vismayaṁ jagmur uttamam | vāsudevaṁ ca bībhatsuṁ praśaśaṁsur mahāratham ||
Sañjaya said: Then all the armies were seized by the highest astonishment; and they began to praise Vāsudeva and the dread-inspiring Arjuna, that great chariot-warrior. The moment underscores how extraordinary prowess, when aligned with righteous purpose and divine guidance, can compel even hostile forces to acknowledge excellence.
