अस्त्रयुद्धे द्रौणिपार्थसंघर्षः — Karṇa’s Bhārgavāstra and the Search for Yudhiṣṭhira
Chapter 45
ऐसी बातें कहते हुए मद्रराज शल्यसे कर्णने अत्यन्त क्रोधपूर्वक कहा--'तुम्हीं देखो न, रोषमें भरे हुए संशप्तकोंने उनपर चारों ओरसे आक्रमण कर दिया है ।।
eṣa sūrya ivāmbhodaiś channaḥ pārtho na dṛśyate | etad-anto 'rjunaḥ śalya nimagno yodhasāgare ||
サンジャヤは言った。カルナはそう言いながら、マドラ王シャリヤに激しい怒りをもって告げた。「見よ—憤怒に満ちたサンシャプタカどもが、四方から彼に襲いかかった。雲に覆われた太陽のように、パールタ（アルジュナ）はもはや見えぬ。シャリヤよ、これをアルジュナの終わりと思え—彼は戦士の海に沈んだのだ。」

The verse highlights how anger and triumphal certainty can distort judgment in war: Karṇa interprets Arjuna’s temporary concealment amid a massed assault as his “end,” illustrating the ethical danger of prideful speech and rash conclusions under the pressure of battle.
Karṇa, speaking heatedly to his charioteer Śalya, points out that the Saṁsaptakas have surrounded and attacked Arjuna from all sides. Because Arjuna is no longer visible—compared to the sun hidden by clouds—Karṇa claims that Arjuna has been overwhelmed and has met his end in the ‘ocean’ of warriors.
