Educational Q&A
Even in the urgency of battle, righteous conduct emphasizes discipline and proper authorization: Sātyaki acts with Kṛṣṇa’s consent, reflecting alignment with legitimate leadership and dharmic order rather than uncontrolled aggression.
Sañjaya reports that Sātyaki, identified as Śini’s grandson, mounts a brilliantly radiant chariot—likened to fire and the sun—after receiving Śrī Kṛṣṇa’s permission; the chariot is harnessed by Dāruka.
