- You have crossed the illusory energy of Lord Viṣṇu, and because of this you have given up the demoniac mentality and have attained the position of an exalted devotee.
- O respectable one! Vṛtrāsura, who was completely able to subdue his enemy, took his iron club, whirled it around, and then threw it at Indra with his left hand.

Ashamed, Indra did not retrieve the thunderbolt which had fallen from his hand in the presence of his enemy. Vṛtrāsura spoke again, "O Indra! Take up your thunderbolt and kill your enemy. This is not the time for lamentation."
|| 6.12.7 ||
yuyutsatāṁ kutracid ātatāyināṁ
jayaḥ sadaikatra na vai parātmanām
vinaikam utpatti-laya-sthitīśvaraṁ
sarvajñam ādyaṁ puruṣaṁ sanātanam
Persons desiring to fight with weapons but who are not dependent on the Lord, who are devoid of the one eternal, omniscient Lord who is controller of creation, maintenance and destruction, do not have continuous victory against enemies, or even victory against one person.
For those holding weapons, there is never victory at any time against enemies, or even against one enemy (ekatra). Though you are always victorious over the demons you are not victorious over me. This is because people like you are not dependent on the Lord but on someone else (parātmanām). But the Lord is always victorious. You cannot always have victory like Arjuna, who was completely dependent on the Lord.
|| 6.12.8 ||
lokāḥ sapālā yasyeme
śvasanti vivaśā vaśe
dvijā iva śicā baddhāḥ
sa kāla iha kāraṇam
Time, under whose control all planets and their devatās operate helplessly, like birds caught in a net, is the cause of your victory or defeat.
Time, operating according to good or bad karmas, is the cause of defeat or victory for you, who are dependent on karma. Time, under whose control all persons move, like birds caught in a net (śicā), is the cause.
