स हतो मुद्गरेणाथ शक्रकुञ्जर आहवे । जगाम पश्चात्पद्भ्यां च पृथिवीं भूधराकृतिः
sa hato mudgareṇātha śakrakuñjara āhave | jagāma paścātpadbhyāṃ ca pṛthivīṃ bhūdharākṛtiḥ
جنگ میں مُدگر کی ضرب سے شکر کا ہاتھی لڑکھڑا گیا؛ پہاڑ جیسے بدن والا وہ جانور قدم بہ قدم پیچھے ہٹتا ہوا زمین پر گر پڑا۔
Lomaharṣaṇa (Sūta), narrating to the sages
Scene: Airāvata, struck hard, reels and steps backward, each step heavier than the last, until the colossal, mountain-like body sinks down onto the earth amid dust and silence.
Even the mighty can be shaken; power without steadiness is vulnerable before determined effort.
No tīrtha is mentioned; the focus is the unfolding of the conflict.
None; it is descriptive narration of battle.
