# Srimad Bhagavatam Canto 1 Chapter 8 Text 11

**[Śrīmad Bhāgavatam Canto 1 Chapter 8 Text 11](http://www.vedabase.com/en/sb/1/8/11)**

 

*
sūta uvāca
upadhārya vacas tasyā
bhagavān bhakta-vatsalaḥ
apāṇḍavam idaṁ kartuṁ
drauṇer astram abudhyata
* 

TRANSLATION
Sūta Gosvāmī said: Having patiently heard her words, Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa, who is always very affectionate to His devotees, could at once understand that Aśvatthāmā, the son of Droṇācārya, had thrown the brahmāstra to finish the last life in the Pāṇḍava family.
