c5.s2.395.11

he mentioned the destruction of the family of Kaçi, Karṇa alone, with his brothers, having engaged in battle in order to procure the kingdom for Duryodhana; Jarasandha could not overcome them, but Bhīshma had adjured Karṇa to unite with his uterine brothers. Karṇa mentioned that Kuntī had abandoned him, and his obligations to Duryodhana, etc. (δ); he would fight Arjuna and the Pāṇḍavas though they were protected by Kṛṣṇa. Bhīshma gave permission to Karṇa to fight, making heaven his goal, and then dismissed him (VI, 122).
