Bhagavati Sūtra Bk. 7 Ch. 9
75
Before he joined action, he took the vow not to hit or hurt till someone did the same to him, and then to cease thereafter. Having made a mental resolve like that, he entered into the battle arena. While he was thus inside the arena, a man of very similar limbs and similar skin, armed with similar weapons, and seated on a chariot, came in the presence of Varuņa and said,
"Oh Varuna, the grand-son of Naga! I challenge thee to hurt me." Thereon replied Varuna as follows:
"Dear sir ! I am under a vow not to take the initiative to attacked first. So I beseech thee to hurt anyone till I am hurt me."
When Varuņa had said like that, the other man, his adversary, became blind with anger and passion, picked up his bow, fitted his arrow on it, and then standing at an appropriate angle, he pulled the arrow till his ear and let it go at his adversary. Though severely wounded, in a rage, Varuņa shot back his adversary with an arrow pulled till the ear so that, like a stone broken into pieces, the man fell dead.
