Krishna going away form both the forces said in a loud voice, “Let both the armies stay at their places and now we both i.e. I and Pundrik shall fight in this battlefield.”2265.
Krishna said this, “I call myself Ghanshyam, that is the reason why Shragaal has come to attack with his forces
“Why should both the forces fight with each other? Let them stand and watch
It will be appropriate for me and Pundrik to fight.”2266.
DOHRA
Agreeing to this proposal, both the forces abandoning their anger stood there and both the Vasudevs advanced forward to fight.2267.
SWAYYA
It seemed that two intoxicated elephants or two lions had come to fight with each other
It seemed that two winged mountains were flying on doomsday to fight with each other,
Or the clouds were thundering and raining in fury on the doomsday, they appeared to be the infuriated Rudras.2268.
KABIT
Just as falsehood cannot stay against truth, the glass against the stone, the mercury against the fire and the leaf against the wave
Just as attachment cannot stay against knowledge, malice against wisdom, pride against the ascetic Brahmin and the animal against the human being
Just as the shame cannot stand against the lust, the cold against the heat, the sin against the Name of the Lord, temporary object before the permanent object, miserliness against the charity and the anger against the respect
In the same way these two Vasudevas consisting of opposite qualities fought against each other.2269.
SWAYYA
When the dreadful war was fought there, then ultimately Krishna holding his discus challenged Shragaal and said, “I am killing you
He discharged his discuss (Sudarshan Chakra), which chopped the head of the enemy like the potter with the aid of the thread has separated the vessel from the revolving wheel.2270.
Seeing the dead Shragaal, a king of Kashi advanced forward and he waged a dreadful war with Krishna
There was a great destruction there and hero also Krishna discharged his discus and chopped the head of the king like the earlier king.2271.
Both these forces saw Krishna destroying the warrior in anger
All were plesed and the clarionets and drums were played
The warriors of the enemy’s army left for their homes and there was a shower of flowers from the sky on Krishna like the rain coming from clouds.2272.
End of the chapter entitled, "Killing of Shragaal alongwith the king of Kashi" in Krishnavatara in Bachittar Natak.
Now begins the description of the Battle with Sudaksha
SWAYYA
When the enemy’s forces ran away, Krishna cam to his army
Those gods who were there, clung to his feet
They circumambulated around Krishna, blew there conches, burnt the incences and recognized Krishna as the real hero.2273.
On that side Daksha, eulogsising Krishna, went to his home and on this side Krishna came to Dwarka
On that side in Kashi, the people aggrieved on displaying the chopped head of the king
They talked like this that was the reward of the behaviour that the king had adopted towards Krishna.2274.
Brahma, Narada and Shiva, on whom the people meditate and by burning incense and blowing the conch, they worship them on bowing their heads,
They offer leaves and flowers with bowed heads, these Brahmas, Narada and Shiva etc, have not been able to comprehend the mystery of Krishna.2275.
Sudaksha, the son of the king of Kashi, getting enraged, thought, “He who has killed my father, I shall also kill him
