Translation

Sanjaya said: “In the midst of battle, they advanced against Karna—known as Vaikartana—and against those Rakshasas as well. When Śrī Kṛṣṇa spoke thus, all those great chariot-warriors, in obedience to his command, moved onto the battlefield to confront Vaikartana Karna and those Rakshasa fighters.”
