The Battle of Krishna and Salva

King Salva, deeply grieved by the death of his friend Shishupala, sought vengeance against Krishna. Seizing the opportunity while Krishna was away from Dwarka, Salva launched a fierce attack on the city, causing chaos and destruction.

When Krishna heard of Salva’s assault, he rushed back to Dwarka from Hastina, determined to protect his kingdom and his people. As Krishna approached, he saw the devastation Salva had caused and quickly prepared for battle. Salva, perched upon his magical flying chariot, fired weapons from above, creating a terrifying scene in the skies.

Salva’s chariot was no ordinary one; it could move with incredible speed and even vanish from sight, reappearing unexpectedly to confuse and disorient Krishna. With each shot fired, Krishna skillfully countered, but Salva employed illusions to throw Krishna off balance. At one point, Salva used a cruel trick, creating an illusion of Krishna’s father, Vasudeva, bound and in danger. This sight momentarily distracted Krishna, filling him with concern.

However, Krishna quickly realized it was an illusion meant to weaken him. Gathering his focus, Krishna launched a powerful attack with his Sudarshan Chakra, cutting through Salva’s illusions and striking his flying chariot. With one final, precise blow, Krishna directed the Sudarshan Chakra at Salva, bringing an end to the tyrant’s life and restoring peace to Dwarka.

**Moral:** Deception and hatred can only bring temporary success; true strength lies in clarity of purpose and unwavering focus.
