Adhyāya 22: Śālva’s Weapon-Shower, Dāruka’s Wounding, and the Māyā-Report of Vasudeva’s Father
शैब्यसुग्रीवयुक्तेन रथेनादित्यवर्चसा । द्वारकां प्रययौ कृष्ण: समाश्वास्य युधिष्ठिरम्,उस रथमें शैब्य और सुग्रीव नामक घोड़े जुते हुए थे और वह सूर्यके समान तेजस्वी प्रतीत होता था। युधिष्ठिरको आश्वासन देकर श्रीकृष्ण उसी रथके द्वारा द्वारकापुरीकी ओर चल दिये
śaibyasugrīvayuktena rathenādityavarcāsā | dvārakāṃ prayayau kṛṣṇaḥ samāśvāsya yudhiṣṭhiram ||
Sinabi ni Vaiśampāyana: Sa karwaheng kasingliwanag ng araw, na hinihila ng mga kabayong nagngangalang Śaibya at Sugrīva, umalis si Kṛṣṇa patungong Dvārakā. Matapos payapain si Yudhiṣṭhira, siya’y lumisan sakay ng karwaheng iyon.

Educational Q&A
A dharmic leader must steady the mind of one burdened by grief and responsibility; reassurance and wise counsel are themselves forms of righteous action before undertaking further duties.
After consoling Yudhiṣṭhira, Kṛṣṇa departs for Dvārakā in a radiant chariot yoked with the horses Śaibya and Sugrīva, marking a transition from counsel to purposeful action.
