इत्यन्तरेणार्जुनयो: कृष्णस्तु यमयोर्ययौ । आत्मनिर्वेशमात्रेण तिर्यग्गतमुलूखलम् ॥ २६ ॥
ity antareṇārjunayoḥ kṛṣṇas tu yamayor yayau ātma-nirveśa-mātreṇa tiryag-gatam ulūkhalam
- iti
- thus deciding
- antareṇa
- between
- arjunayoḥ
- the two arjuna trees
- kṛṣṇaḥ tu
- Lord Kṛṣṇa
- yamayoḥ yayau
- entered between the two trees
- ātma-nirveśa-mātreṇa
- as soon as He entered (between the two trees)
- tiryak
- crossways
- gatam
- so became
- ulūkhalam
- the big mortar for grinding spices
Having thus spoken, Kṛṣṇa soon entered between the two arjuna trees, and thus the big mortar to which He was bound turned crosswise and stuck between them.
