English	1.14–15: Kṛṣṇa and Arjuna sounded their transcendental conchshells to herald the beginning of the battle. Lord Kṛṣṇa blew His conchshell, called Pāñcajanya; Arjuna blew his, the Devadatta; and Bhīma, the voracious eater and performer of herculean tasks, blew his terrific conchshell, called Pauṇḍra."
