Jarasandha who was a close friend and father in law of Kamsa,Was blinded with rage at your slaying of Kamsa,And not able to properly think about possibility or otherwise,Came for war with the kingdom of Mathura, Thou, accompanied by Balarama,equipping Thyself with a chariot called from heaven and a small army, requisitioned from the heavens,didst wipe out 23 Akshouhinis of Jarasandha's army. Akshouhini is a large army comprised of 21,870 chariots, as many elephants, 65,610 cavalry and 1,09,350infantry.
