Shloka 54
Karṇa’s advance against the Pāṇḍava host; Arjuna’s clash with the Saṃśaptakas (कर्णस्य पाण्डवसेनाप्रवेशः—अर्जुनस्य संशप्तकसंप्रहारः)
त्रयम्बकेणा भ्यनुज्ञातास्ततस्ते स्वस्थचेतस:
trayambakeṇābhyanujñātās tatas te svasthacetasaḥ
三つ目の神トリヤンバカ（シヴァ）の許しを得ると、彼らは心安らぎ、意志も揺るがぬものとなった——戦の道義的重圧のただ中にあっても、その神聖な承認を吉兆と受け取り、胸を慰められつつ前進した。
