Skanda Purana — Prabhasa Khanda, Shloka 10
जरासंधबले रौद्रे यवने च हते क्षितौ । राजसूये क्रतुवरे चैद्ये चैव निपातिते
jarāsaṃdhabale raudre yavane ca hate kṣitau | rājasūye kratuvare caidye caiva nipātite
جب جراسندھ کی ہولناک قوت مغلوب ہوئی اور زمین پر یَوَن قتل کیا گیا؛ جب بہترین راجسوئے یَجّ میں چَیدیہ بھی گرا دیا گیا—
Sūta (Lomaharṣaṇa) to the sages (deduced; not explicit in snippet)
Tirtha: Dvārakā in the shadow of Jarāsandha; Rājasūya sabhā (Indraprastha) remembrance
Type: kshetra
Scene: Battle imagery of Jarāsandha’s vast forces checked; the Yavana adversary slain; then the grand Rājasūya hall at Indraprastha where Kṛṣṇa receives agrya-pūjā and Śiśupāla falls by the Sudarśana discus amid stunned kings.
