"Agnivesya gave it to me; with it I now bind your armor for the protection of your body, by the mantra, O best of kings." Having spoken thus, Drona, the resplendent bull among teachers, then again softly spoke a word to your son: "With the brahma-thread I bind your armor, O king, as Vishnu's was bound of old in battle by Hiranyagarbha [Brahma]."

Drona binds the armor with 'brahmasūtreṇa', the brahma-thread, just as Vishnu himself was once protected by it, given by Brahma. It is telling that the power of the rite is traced to the protection of the Lord Himself. And yet — an unrighteous deed is being blessed, and so this protection is doomed. The verse teaches that even the holiest rites and threads do not save the unrighteous: what once guarded Vishnu will not save one who stands against Vishnu-Krishna; for the power of a rite is subject to the Lord's will, and turned against Him, it is powerless.
