Shloka 18
एवमुक््त्वा तु तं॑ कृष्णो रथाद् भूमिमवर्तयत् । निःश्वसन्तं यथा नागं क्रोधसंरक्तलोचनम्,ऐसा कहकर श्रीकृष्णने क्रोधसे लाल आँखें करके सर्पके समान फुफकारते हुए भीमसेनको रथसे भूमिपर उतार लिया
evam uktvā tu taṃ kṛṣṇo rathād bhūmim avartayat | niḥśvasantaṃ yathā nāgaṃ krodha-saṃrakta-locanam ||
ສັນຊະຍະ ກ່າວວ່າ: ເມື່ອຕັດດັ່ງນັ້ນແລ້ວ ກຣິດສະນະ ກໍໃຫ້ລາວລົງຈາກລົດສົງຄາມສູ່ພື້ນດິນ. ລາວຫາຍໃຈຫນັກ ດັ່ງຊ້າງທີ່ໂກດກຽວ, ດວງຕາແດງກ້າດ້ວຍໂທສະ—ເປັນພາບຂອງຄວາມໂກດທີ່ຖືກຫ້າມໄວ້ ທ່າມກາງພາລະທາງທຳຂອງສົງຄາມ.

Even in the heat of battle, uncontrolled anger is dangerous; the wiser guide restrains the furious warrior, redirecting energy toward disciplined action aligned with dharma rather than impulsive violence.
After speaking to him, Kṛṣṇa has the enraged fighter descend from the chariot. The verse emphasizes the warrior’s wrath—panting like an elephant with bloodshot eyes—while showing Kṛṣṇa actively managing the situation.
