Skanda Purana — Mahesvara Khanda, Shloka 85
धृष्टद्युम्नं फाल्गुनं च सात्यकिं मां च पांडव । निराकृत्य ब्रवीष्येव सूतं धिक्त्वा युधिष्ठिर
dhṛṣṭadyumnaṃ phālgunaṃ ca sātyakiṃ māṃ ca pāṃḍava | nirākṛtya bravīṣyeva sūtaṃ dhiktvā yudhiṣṭhira
“Hỡi Pāṇḍava, gạt bỏ Dhṛṣṭadyumna, Phālguna, Sātyaki và cả ta, mà ngươi lại nói như thể chỉ người đánh xe mới đáng kể—thật đáng hổ thẹn cho ngươi, Yudhiṣṭhira!”
Bhīma
Scene: Bhīma expands his complaint, naming the warriors and accusing Yudhiṣṭhira of praising only the charioteer; his expression is wounded and angry; the others look uneasy; Kṛṣṇa remains tranquil.
