Nārada said: Vīrabhadra, great hero, you are the foremost of the Gaṇas; turn back from this battle — killing by you is not pleasing. Those Asuras too, who lived for Tāraka, fought; excessive in strength, great heroes, crushing the Gaṇas in fury. Having done such a great deed, Tāraka, the protector of the Asuras, best of the strong, was unassailable even by all the gods. And rising again, the lord of the Daityas, Tāraka, leader of the Asuras, endowed with exceeding strength, swiftly cut the discus by his own power.
