Droṇa-parva Adhyāya 94: Sātyaki–Sudarśana Yuddha (सात्यकि–सुदर्शन युद्ध)
न चाकरोत् स ठठद्दाक्यं प्राप्ते काले श्रुतायुध: । स तया वीरघातिन्या जनार्दनमताडयत्,परंतु काल आ जानेपर श्रुतायुधने वरुणदेवके उक्त आदेशका पालन नहीं किया। उन्होंने उस वीरघातिनी गदाके द्वारा भगवान् श्रीकृष्णको चोट पहुँचायी
na cākarot sa tat tad vākyaṃ prāpte kāle śrutāyudhaḥ | sa tayā vīraghātinyā janārdanam atāḍayat |
Sañjaya said: But when the decisive moment arrived, Śrutāyudha did not act in accordance with that instruction. Instead, wielding that hero-slaying mace, he struck Janārdana (Kṛṣṇa). The episode underscores how disregarding a divinely given restraint in the heat of war becomes an ethical lapse that invites ruin, even when one possesses formidable power.
