द्रोणपर्व — अध्याय २७: सुशर्माह्वानम्, अर्जुनस्य प्रतिनिवर्तनम्, भगदत्तेन गजप्रहारः
संशप्तकांस्ततो हत्वा भूयिष्ठा ये व्यवस्थिता: । भगदत्ताय याहीति कृष्णं पार्थो&भ्यनोदयत्,इस प्रकार वहाँ खड़े हुए संशप्तक योद्धाओंमेंसे अधिकांशका वध करके अर्जुनने भगवान् श्रीकृष्णसे कहा--“अब भगदत्तके पास चलिये”
saṁśaptakāṁs tato hatvā bhūyiṣṭhā ye vyavasthitāḥ | bhagadattāya yāhīti kṛṣṇaṁ pārtho 'bhyanodayat ||
Sañjaya said: After slaying most of the Saṁśaptaka warriors who stood arrayed there, Arjuna urged Kṛṣṇa, “Now, let us go toward Bhagadatta.” The moment underscores Arjuna’s disciplined focus in battle: having met the immediate challenge, he turns without delay to the next formidable opponent, guided by Kṛṣṇa’s charioteering and counsel amid the demands of righteous warfare.
