Lord Kṛṣṇa thought, “No outside force could ever bring about the defeat of this family, the Yadu dynasty, whose members have always been fully surrendered to Me and are unrestricted in their opulence. But if I inspire a quarrel within the dynasty, that quarrel will act just like a fire created from the friction of bamboo in a grove, and then I shall achieve My real purpose and return to My eternal abode.”
Srimad Bhagavata Purana
श्रीमद्भागवतमहापुराणम्
मूल श्लोकः
नैवान्यतः परिभवोऽस्य भवेत्कथञ्चि- न्मत्संश्रयस्य विभवोन्नहनस्य नित्यम् । अन्तःकलिं यदुकुलस्य विधाय वेणु- स्तम्बस्य वह्निमिव शान्तिमुपैमि धाम
naivānyataḥ paribhavo'sya bhavetkathañci- nmatsaṃśrayasya vibhavonnahanasya nityam | antaḥkaliṃ yadukulasya vidhāya veṇu- stambasya vahnimiva śāntimupaimi dhāma
