Shloka 106
Puṣkara-Śapatha Itihāsa (Agastya–Indra Dispute at the Tīrthas) | पुष्कर-शपथ-आख्यानम्
यह कहकर उस संन्यासीने ब्रह्मदण्डके समान अपने त्रिदण्डसे उसके मस्तकपर ऐसा हाथ जमाया कि वह यातुधानी पृथ्वीपर गिर पड़ी और तुरंत भस्म हो गयी ।।
śunaḥsakha uvāca | śunaḥsakhā ca hatvā tāṃ yātudhānīṃ mahābalām | bhūvi tridaṇḍaṃ viṣṭabhya śādvale samupāviśat ||
そう言い終えると、その出家者は梵杖にも等しい三杖（トリダンダ）で彼女の頭頂を強く打ち据えた。ヤートゥダーニーは大地に倒れ、たちまち灰と化した。かくして大いなる力をもつ鬼女を討ち果たしたシュナハサカは、三杖を地に固く立て、草に覆われたその地に静かに坐した。

Educational Q&A
Even an ascetic committed to restraint may employ force when necessary to stop grave harm; the ethical emphasis is on disciplined, duty-bound action rather than anger or cruelty, followed by a return to calm self-control.
Śunaḥsakha kills a powerful yātudhānī, then plants his tridaṇḍa into the ground and sits on the grassy earth, signaling the completion of a protective act and the reestablishment of ascetic composure.
