Chapter 20
ते निकृत्तभुजस्कन्धा: कबन्धाकृतिदर्शना: । नदन्तो भैरवान् नादान् निपतन्ति सम दानवा:,कंधे और भुजाओंके कट जानेसे कबन्धकी आकृतिमें दिखायी देनेवाले वे दानव भयंकर नाद करते हुए समुद्रमें गिरने लगे
te nikṛttabhuja-skandhāḥ kabandhākṛti-darśanāḥ | nadanto bhairavān nādān nipatanti samudre dānavāḥ ||
തോളുകളും കൈകളും വെട്ടിമാറ്റപ്പെട്ടതിനാൽ കബന്ധങ്ങളെപ്പോലെ തോന്നിയ ആ ദാനവർ ഭീകരനാദം മുഴക്കി കടലിലേക്കു പതിച്ചു।

Educational Q&A
Unchecked hostility and adharma-driven aggression culminate in self-destruction when confronted by rightful, superior power; the verse highlights the moral logic of consequence (karma-phala) within epic warfare.
After being struck so that their arms and shoulders are severed, the Dānavas appear like kabandhas (headless trunks), roar in terror, and plunge into the sea.
