Chapter 261
As the Rajasuya reaches its climax, Sahadeva declares Krishna the supreme object of homage and challenges any king who objects to step forward—placing his foot on the imagined heads of his opponents. The entire assembly falls silent, and the heavens approve.
Chapter 294

He offers sanctuary to their aged mother, Kunti, then delivers a fierce, poetic exhortation: reminding the brothers of their unique strengths, their divine teachers, and the elemental virtues they must embody to survive and return victorious.
