अध्याय ६० — कर्णस्य पाञ्चाल-सोमक-निग्रहः
Karna’s Suppression of the Panchala–Somaka Forces
ततः स पार्षतः क्रुद्धों धनुश्चिच्छेद मारिष । क्षुरप्रेण सुतीक्ष्णेन तत उच्चुक्रुशुर्जना:,आर्य! तब कुपित हुए ट्रुपदकुमारने अत्यन्त तीखे क्षुरप्रसे दःशासनके धनुषको काट दिया। यह देख सब लोग कोलाहल कर उठे
tataḥ sa pārṣataḥ kruddho dhanuś ciccheda māriṣa | kṣurapreṇa sutīkṣṇena tata uccukruśur janāḥ ||
サンジャヤは言った。――するとパールシャタの子（ドリシュタデュムナ）は憤激し、剃刀のごとく鋭いクシュラプラ（kṣurapra）の矢でドゥフシャーサナの弓を断ち切った。これを見て人々はどっと叫び声を上げた。

Educational Q&A
In the battlefield ethic of the Mahābhārata, disabling an opponent’s weapon is a decisive act that limits harm while asserting dominance; it reflects the harsh but rule-aware logic of kṣatriya conduct, where skill and restraint can coexist with necessary force.
Dṛṣṭadyumna (called Pārṣata), angered in combat, shoots a razor-edged arrow that cuts Duḥśāsana’s bow. The spectators react with a loud outcry at this display of precision and the sudden shift in advantage.
