रथं हेममयं शुभ्र॑ शैब्यसुग्रीवयोजितम् । सह सात्यकिना कृष्ण: समास्थायान्वयात् कुरून्,शैब्य और सुग्रीव नामक घोड़ोंसे जुते हुए सुन्दर सुवर्णमय रथपर आखरूढ़ हो सात्यकिसहित श्रीकृष्ण भी कौरवोंके पीछे-पीछे गये
rathaṁ hemamayaṁ śubhraṁ śaibyasugrīvayojitam | saha sātyakinā kṛṣṇaḥ samāsthāyānvayāt kurūn ||
ಶೈಬ್ಯ ಮತ್ತು ಸುಗ್ರೀವ ಎಂಬ ಕುದುರೆಗಳಿಂದ ಜೋಡಿಸಲ್ಪಟ್ಟ ಸುಂದರ, ಪ್ರಕಾಶಮಾನ ಸ್ವರ್ಣಮಯ ರಥವನ್ನು ಏರಿ, ಸಾತ್ಯಕಿಯೊಂದಿಗೆ ಶ್ರೀಕೃಷ್ಣನೂ ಕೌರವರ ಹಿಂದೆ ಹಿಂದೆ ಹೋದನು।

Educational Q&A
Even amid politically charged movement toward conflict, the text highlights disciplined action under rightful guidance: Kṛṣṇa proceeds with clarity and support (Sātyaki), suggesting that dharmic action is deliberate, accountable, and strengthened by loyal companionship.
Vaiśampāyana narrates that Kṛṣṇa, with Sātyaki, mounts a radiant golden chariot yoked to the horses Śaibya and Sugrīva, and follows behind the Kurus as the sequence of events continues.
