Hurled with terrible speed, struck down by Karna's arrows, like the design of an unlucky man, it fell uselessly to the ground. And Ghatotkacha, enraged, seeing the disc struck down, showered Karna with arrows, as Rahu covers the sun. And the son of the suta, unshaken, with the might of Rudra, Upendra, and Indra, swiftly covered Ghatotkacha's chariot with feathered arrows. Then the gold-bound mace of the enraged Ghatotkacha, hurled, whirling — it too, struck down by Karna's arrows, fell.

The disc falls "like the design of an unlucky man" — in vain: even a fearsome weapon is futile in an unfavorable hour. It is telling that the weapon is compared to a doomed design: not the power of the instrument but the favor of fate decides the outcome. The verse teaches that even a mighty means is powerless when the time is wrong: as the design of the unlucky collapses of itself, so the divine disc falls to the ground; and above both skill and weapon stands the inscrutable will of fate.
