Seeing this sport from the sky, the gods said, “O Krishna! you are delaying, because you killed the demons like Mur and Madhu Kaitabh in an instant.”1367.
The war continued throughout the day, then Krishna devised a method. He said, “I am not killing you,” and saying this, when the enemy looked behind,
He very quickly at that very instant, struck a blow on the neck of the enemy with his sharp sword and in this way, killing the enemy, removed the fear of his army.1368.
In this way, killing his enemy, Krishna was pleased and looking at his army, he blew his conch forcefully
He is the support of the saints and capable of doing everything, he, the Lord of Braja
Under his command, his army of four divisions, waged a terrible war in the battlefield.1369.
