The chariot of the Lord, driven by the righteous charioteer Gaya, stood within the ocean, having traveled many yojanas. It was as if the ocean had risen up and swallowed the horses, like a crocodile. ||114||
The chariot, having traveled twelve yojanas, stood in the middle of the ocean. The king, with his hand on the chariot's bow, took up the Karmuka bow. ||115||
When the bow, with its vibrating string and vajra-like shaft, was strung, the world was filled with doubt about its own survival. ||116||
The vibrating string of the bow, resounding in all directions, disturbed the ocean, filled with swarms of fish, as they scattered in fear. ||117||
"Does this king wish to destroy this ocean, or the entire world?" Thus, the Vidyadharas, filled with apprehension, stood in the sky for a moment. ||118||
Standing in a praiseworthy posture, the king placed an infallible arrow, called Amogha, on the bow, which was curved but strong and capable of straight action. ||119||
"I am Bharata, the Chakravarti, son of Vrishabhadeva. All the Vyantara Devas who reside in my domain shall be subject to me." Thus, the arrow, bearing these words in clear script, was released by the Chakravarti, like a swift messenger, heading towards the east. ||120-121||
The arrow, with its thunderous roar, which had conquered the sound of the thunderbolt, caused turmoil in the army of the Magadha king, as it descended from the sky to his abode. ||122||
"Has the ocean been disturbed by the wind of the Kalpanta, or has a thunderbolt fallen with a loud roar, or is there an earthquake?" Thus, the Vyantara Devas, whose minds were filled with anxiety, stood ready, surrounding the Magadha king. ||123-124||
O Gods, an arrow has fallen in our assembly hall. This disturbance is due to nothing else. ||125||
Gaya, the righteous charioteer, inspired their desire, which was then fulfilled. ||113||
The chariot of Maharaja Bharata stood within the ocean, having traveled many yojanas. It was as if the ocean had risen up and swallowed the horses, like a crocodile. ||114||
When the chariot stood within the ocean, having traveled twelve yojanas, the Chakravarti, filled with anger, took up his bow. ||115||
The bow, with its vibrating string and vajra-like shaft, was strung by the Chakravarti. At that moment, the world was filled with doubt about its own survival. ||116||
The vibrating string of the bow, resounding in all directions, disturbed the ocean, filled with swarms of fish, as they scattered in fear. ||117||
