Duryodhana–Karna Dialogue on Vyūha-bheda and Daiva
यो यः सम नीयते तत्र तं द्रोणो हान्तकोपम: । आदत्त सर्वभूतानि प्राप्ते काले यथान्तक:,जैसे काल आनेपर यमराज समस्त प्राणियोंको ग्रस लेता है, उसी प्रकार कालके समान द्रोणाचार्यने जो-जो वीर उनके सामने पहुँचा, उसे-उसे मौतके हवाले कर दिया
yo yaḥ samānīyate tatra taṃ droṇo hāntakopamaḥ | ādatta sarvabhūtāni prāpte kāle yathāntakaḥ ||
サञ्जャヤは言った。「そこで彼の前へ連れて来られる者は誰であれ、ドローナは憤れる死そのもののごとく掴み取り、討ち伏せた。定めの時が来ればヤマ（死の王）があらゆる生きものを奪うように、ドローナ師もまた、眼前に至る武者を一人残らず死へと引き渡した。」

The verse underscores the inevitability of death and the power of ‘kāla’ (time/fate): when the destined moment arrives, even great warriors are taken, and on the battlefield Droṇa functions as an instrument of that overwhelming inevitability.
Sañjaya describes Droṇa’s battlefield dominance: any warrior brought into Droṇa’s range is cut down, and Droṇa is compared to Antaka (Death/Yama) who, at the appointed time, takes all beings without exception.
