1.214.1
पुरा वै नैमिशारण्ये देवाः सत्रमुपासते ।
तत्र वैवस्वतो राजञ्शामित्रमकरोत्तदा ॥ १.२१४.१ ॥
Long ago, in the Naimiṣa forest, the gods were performing a long sacrificial session. O king, Vaivasvata (Yama) then carried out the office of the Śāmitra priest.
1.214.2
ततो यमो दीक्षितस्तत्र राज-
न्नामारयत्कंचिदपि प्रजानाम्।
ततः प्रजास्ता बहुला बभूवुः ।
कालातिपातान्मरणप्रहीणाः ॥ १.२१४.२ ॥
Then Yama, consecrated for the rite there, O king, killed none of the creatures. So those creatures became many, and as time passed they were free from death.
1.214.3
सोमश्च शक्रो वरुणः कुबेरः ।
साध्या रुद्रा वसवोऽथाश्विनौ च।
प्रजापतिर्भुवनस्य प्रणेता ।
समाजग्मुस्तत्र देवास्तथाऽन्ये ॥ १.२१४.३ ॥
Soma, Śakra (Indra), Varuṇa, Kubera, the Sādhyas, the Rudras, the Vasus, the two Aśvins, Prajāpati the guide of the worlds, and the other gods also gathered there.
1.214.4
ततोऽब्रुवँल्लोकगुरुं समेता ।
भयात्तीव्रान्मानुषाणां विवृद्ध्या।
तस्माद्भयादुद्विजन्तः सुखेप्सवः ।
प्रयाम सर्वे शरणं भवन्तम् ॥ १.२१४.४ ॥
Then the assembled gods said to the teacher of the worlds: Frightened by the severe danger that arose from the great increase of humans, distressed by that fear and desiring happiness, we have all come for refuge to you.
1.214.5
किं वो भयं मानुषेभ्यो यूयं सर्वे यदाऽमराः ।
मा वो मर्त्यसकाशाद्वै भयं भवितुमर्हति ॥ १.२१४.५ ॥
What fear do you have of humans, you who are all immortal? It is not fitting that fear should come to you from the mortals.
1.214.6
मर्त्या अमर्त्याः संवृत्ता न विशेषोऽस्ति कश्चन ।
अविशेषादुद्विजन्तो विशेषार्थमिहागताः ॥ १.२१४.६ ॥
The mortals have become like the immortals, and no distinction remains. Distressed by this lack of distinction, we have come here to seek a distinction.
1.214.7
वैवस्वतो व्यापृतः सत्रहेतो-
स्तेन त्विमे न म्रियन्ते मनुष्याः।
तस्मिन्नेकाग्रे कृतसर्वकार्ये ।
तत एषां भवितैवान्तकालः ॥ १.२१४.७ ॥
Vaivasvata is occupied with a sacrificial session, so these men do not die. When he, intent on one thing and having finished all his tasks, is done, their appointed time of death will surely come.
1.214.8
वैवस्वतस्यैव तनुर्विभक्ता ।
वीर्येण युष्माकमुत प्रवृद्धा।
सैषामन्तो भविता ह्यन्तकाले ।
न तत्र वीर्यं भविता नरेषु ॥ १.२१४.८ ॥
It is indeed the body of Vaivasvata that has been divided and, by your valour, has grown. That same body will be their end at the time of death; at that time there will be no strength in men.
1.214.9
ततस्तु ते पूर्वजदेववाक्यं ।
श्रुत्वा जग्मुर्यत्र देवा यजन्ते।
समासीनास्ते समेता महाबला ।
भागीरथ्यां ददृशुः पुण्डरीकम् ॥ १.२१४.९ ॥
Then, having heard the words of the ancestral gods, they went to where the gods were sacrificing. Seated there together, those mighty ones saw a white lotus in the Bhāgīrathī.
1.214.10
दृष्ट्वा च तद्विस्मितास्ते बभूवु-
स्तेषामिन्द्रस्तत्र शूरो जगाम।
सोऽपश्यद्योषामथ पावकप्रभां ।
यत्र देवी गङ्गा सततं प्रसूता ॥ १.२१४.१० ॥
Having seen it, they were amazed. Among them, the valiant Indra went there and saw a woman radiant as fire, there where the goddess Gaṅgā had continually given birth.
1.214.11
सा तत्र योषा रुदती जलार्थिनी ।
गङ्गां देवीं व्यवगाह्य व्यतिष्ठत्।
तस्याश्रुबिन्दुः पतितो जले य-
स्तत्पद्ममासीदथ तत्र काञ्चनम् ॥ १.२१४.११ ॥
Weeping, and seeking water, she went down into the goddess Gaṅgā and stood there. A drop of her tears fell into the water, and there it became a golden lotus.
1.214.12
तदद्भुतं प्रेक्ष्य वज्री तदानी-
मपृच्छत्तां योषितमन्तिकाद्वै।
का त्वं भद्रे रोदिषि कस्य हेतो-
र्वाक्यं तथ्यं कामयेऽहं ब्रवीहि ॥ १.२१४.१२ ॥
Seeing that wonder, the thunderbolt-bearer then asked the woman who stood near: "Gentle lady, who are you, and for what cause do you weep? I wish to hear the true word; tell me."
1.214.13
त्वं वेत्स्यसे मामिह याऽस्मि शक्र ।
यदर्थं चाहं रोदिमि मन्दभाग्या।
आगच्छ राजन्पुरतो गमिष्ये ।
द्रष्टाऽसि तद्रोदिमि यत्कृतेऽहम् ॥ १.२१४.१३ ॥
You shall know who I am here, O Śakra. I am ill-fated, and for the sake of which I weep: come, O king, I will go ahead. You shall see that for whose sake I weep.
1.214.14
तां गच्छन्तीमन्वगच्छत्तदानीं ।
सोऽपश्यदारात्तरुणं दर्शनीयम्।
सिद्धासनस्थं युवतीसहायं ।
क्रीडन्तमक्षैर्गिरिराजमूर्ध्नि ॥ १.२१४.१४ ॥
He then followed her as she went; from afar he saw a young man, beautiful to behold, seated in the siddha posture, accompanied by a young woman, playing dice on the summit of the king of mountains.
1.214.15
तमब्रवीद्देवराजो ममेदं ।
त्वं विद्धि विद्वन्भुवनं वशे स्थितम्।
ईशोऽहस्मीति समन्युरब्रवी-
द्दृष्ट्वा तमक्षैः सुभृशं प्रमत्तम् ॥ १.२१४.१५ ॥
The king of the gods said to him: "Learned one, know that this world stands under my control. I am the Lord." Seeing him very heedless at the dice, he spoke in anger.
1.214.16
क्रुद्धं च शक्रं प्रसमीक्ष्य देवो ।
जहाय शक्रं च शैरुदैक्षत।
संस्तम्भितोऽभूदथ देवराज-
स्तेनेक्षितः स्थाणुरिवावतस्थे ॥ १.२१४.१६ ॥
Seeing Indra enraged, the god let him go and looked upon himself. Then the king of the gods was stunned; gazed upon by him, he stood like a post.
1.214.17
यदा तु पर्याप्तमिहास्य क्रीडया ।
तदा देवीं रुदतीं तामुवाच।
आनीयतामेष यतोऽहमारा-
न्नैनं दर्पः पुनरप्याविशेत ॥ १.२१४.१७ ॥
When his sport here was sufficient, he said to the weeping goddess: 'Bring him; I am far off, so that pride may not enter him again.'
1.214.18
ततः शक्रः स्पृष्टमात्रस्तया तु ।
स्रस्तैरङ्गैः पतितोऽभूद्धरण्याम्।
तमब्रवीद्भगवानुग्रतेजा ।
मैवं पुनः शक्र कृथाः कथंचित् ॥ १.२१४.१८ ॥
Then Indra, merely touched by her, fell to the earth with his limbs loosened. Then the blessed one of fierce splendour said to him: 'Indra, never do such a thing again in any way.'
1.214.19
निवर्तयैनं च महाद्रिराजं ।
बलं च वीर्यं च तवाप्रमेयम्।
छिद्रस्य चैवाविश मध्यमस्य ।
यत्रासते त्वद्विधाः सूर्यभासः ॥ १.२१४.१९ ॥
Turn back both him and the king of great mountains, and your immeasurable strength and valour too. Enter the cleft in the middle, where beings of sun-brightness like you dwell.
1.214.20
स तद्विवृत्य विवरं महागिरे-
स्तुल्यद्युतींश्चतुरोऽन्यान्ददर्श।
स तानभिप्रेक्ष्य बभूव दुःखितः ।
कच्चिन्नाहं भविता वै यथेमे ॥ १.२१४.२० ॥
Opening the cleft of the great mountain, he saw four others of equal brilliance. Seeing them, he grew grieved, thinking: 'Shall I not become like these?'
1.214.21
ततो देवो गिरिशो वज्रपाणिं ।
विवृत्य नेत्रे कुपितोऽभ्युवाच।
दरीमेतां प्रविश त्वं शतक्रतो ।
यन्मां बाल्यादवमंस्थाः पुरस्तात् ॥ १.२१४.२१ ॥
Then the god Giriśa, angered, opened his eyes and spoke to the thunderbolt-bearer: "O Śatakratu, enter this cave, because in childishness you once disrespected me."
1.214.22
उक्तस्त्वेवं विभुना देवराजः ।
प्रावेपताऽऽर्तो भृशमेवाभिषङ्गात्।
स्रस्तैरङ्गैरनिलेनेव नुन्न-
मश्वत्थपत्रं गिरिराजमूर्ध्नि ॥ १.२१४.२२ ॥
Thus addressed by the mighty one, the king of gods trembled greatly in distress; his limbs grew slack, like an aśvattha leaf stirred by the wind on the summit of the king of mountains.
1.214.23
स प्राञ्जलिर्वै वृषवाहनेन ।
प्रवेपमानः सहसैवमुक्तः।
उवाच देवं बहुरूपमुग्र-
मद्याशेषस्य भुवनस्य त्वं भवाद्यः ॥ १.२१४.२३ ॥
Suddenly addressed thus by the bull-mounted one, he, trembling and with folded hands, spoke to the fierce god of many forms: "Today you alone are Bhava and the rest of the whole world."
1.214.24
तमब्रवीदुग्रवर्चाः प्रहस्य ।
नैवंशीलाः शेषमिहाप्नुवन्ति।
एतेऽप्येवं भवितारः पुरस्ता-
त्तस्मादेतां दरीमाविश्य शेष्य ॥ १.२१४.२४ ॥
The one of fierce radiance, laughing, said to him: "Those of such a nature do not obtain a remainder here; these too will be so formerly. Therefore, entering this cave, remain as a remnant."
1.214.25
एषा भार्या भविता वो न संशयो ।
योनिं सर्वे मानुषीमाविशध्वम्।
तत्र यूयं कर्म कृत्वाऽविषह्यं ।
बहूनन्यान्निधनं प्रापयित्वा ॥ १.२१४.२५ ॥
This one will be your wife, without doubt. All of you, enter a human womb; there, having done deeds that cannot be borne, and having brought many others to death.
1.214.26
कर्तव्यमन्यद्विविधार्थयुक्तम् ॥ १.२१४.२६ ॥
There is another duty, connected with various purposes.
1.214.27
गमिष्यामो मानुषं देवलोका-
द्दुराधरो विहितो यत्र मोक्षः।
देवास्त्वस्मानादधीरञ्जनन्यां ।
धर्मो वायुर्मघवानश्विनौ च ॥ १.२१४.२७ ॥
We shall go from the world of the gods to the human realm, where release is ordained, though hard to attain. Let the gods place us in mothers' wombs — Dharma, Vāyu, Maghavān (Indra), and the two Aśvins.
1.214.28
एतच्छ्रुत्वा वज्रपाणिर्वचस्तु ।
देवश्रेष्ठं पुनरेवेदमाह।
वीर्येणाहं पुरुषं कार्यहेतो-
र्दद्यामेषां पञ्चमं मत्प्रसूतम् ॥ १.२१४.२८ ॥
Hearing this, Vajrapāṇi (Indra) again spoke these words to the best of gods: "By my power, for the sake of a purpose, I will give a man born of me as the fifth of these."
1.214.29
विश्वभुग्भूतधामा च शिबिरिन्द्रः प्रतापवान् ।
शान्तिश्चतुर्थस्तेषां वै तेजस्वी पञ्चमः स्मृतः ॥ १.२१४.२९ ॥
Viśvabhuk, Bhūtadhāmā, the mighty Indra Śibi — and the fourth of them is Śānti; the radiant one is remembered as the fifth.
1.214.30
तेषां कामं भगवानुग्रधन्वा ।
प्रादादिष्टं सन्निसर्गाद्यथोक्तम्।
तां चाप्येषां योषितं लोककान्तां ।
श्रियं भार्यां व्यदधान्मानुषेषु ॥ १.२१४.३० ॥
The blessed lord Ugradhanvā (Śiva) granted their desire, as stated, by their inherent nature. And he appointed their woman, Śrī, beloved of the world, as their wife among men.
1.214.31
तैरेव सार्धं तु ततः स देवो ।
जगाम नारायणमप्रमेयम्।
अनन्तमव्यक्तमजं पुराणं ।
सनातनं विश्वमनन्तरूपम् ॥ १.२१४.३१ ॥
Then, together with them, that god went to Nārāyaṇa, the immeasurable — endless, unmanifest, unborn, ancient, eternal, the universe, of infinite form.
1.214.32
शुक्लमेकमपरं चापि कृष्णम् ॥ १.२१४.३२ ॥
One white, and another black.
1.214.33
केशो योऽसौ वर्णतः कृष्ण उक्तः ॥ १.२१४.३३ ॥
He who is called Keśa is said to be Kṛṣṇa by colour.
1.214.34
ये ते पूर्वं शक्ररूपा निबद्धा-
स्तस्यां दर्यां पर्वतस्योत्तरस्य।
इहैव ते पाण्डवा वीर्यवन्तः ।
शक्रस्यांशः पाण्डवः सव्यसाची ॥ १.२१४.३४ ॥
Those who formerly had the form of Indra and were bound in that cave of the northern mountain — these mighty Pāṇḍavas are here. Pāṇḍava Savyasācin (Arjuna) is a portion of Indra.
1.214.35
एवमेते पाण्डवाः संबभूवु-
र्ये ते राजन्पूर्वमिन्द्रा बभूवुः।
लक्ष्मीश्चैषां पूर्वमेवोपदिष्टा ।
भार्या यैषा द्रौपदी दिव्यरूपा ॥ १.२१४.३५ ॥
Thus these Pāṇḍavas came into being, O king — they who formerly were the Indras. Their Lakṣmī too was declared earlier; this divine-formed Draupadī is their wife.
1.214.36
कथं हि स्त्री कर्मणा ते महीतला-
त्समुत्तिष्ठेदन्यतो दैवयोगात्।
यस्या रूपं सोमसूर्यप्रकाशं ।
गन्धश्चास्याः कोशमात्रात्प्रवाति ॥ १.२१४.३६ ॥
How could this woman arise — by your deeds from the surface of the earth, or by divine coincidence from elsewhere? Her form shines like the moon and sun, and her fragrance spreads as if from the mere lotus-cup.
1.214.37
इदं चान्यत्प्रीतिपूर्वं नरेन्द्र ।
ददानि ते वरमत्यद्भुतं च।
दिव्यं चक्षुः पश्य कुन्तीसुतांस्त्वं ।
पुण्यैर्दिव्यैः पूर्वदेहैरुपेतान् ॥ १.२१४.३७ ॥
And I grant you another boon, out of affection, O lord of men, most wondrous: obtain the divine eye and behold the sons of Kuntī, who are endowed with their meritorious, divine former bodies.
1.214.38
ततो व्यासः परमोदारकर्मा ।
शुचिर्विप्रस्तपसा तस्य राज्ञः।
चक्षुर्दिव्यं प्रददौ तांश्च सर्वान् ।
राजाऽपश्यत्पूर्वदेहैर्यथावत् ॥ १.२१४.३८ ॥
Then Vyāsa, the pure brahmin of supremely noble deeds, gave the king divine sight through the power of his austerity. The king saw them all, rightly, in their former bodies.
1.214.39
ततो दिव्यान्हेमकिरीटमालिनः ।
शक्रप्रख्यान्पावकादित्यवर्णान्।
बद्धापीडांश्चारुरूपांश्च यूनो ।
व्यूढोरस्कांस्तालमात्रान्ददर्श ॥ १.२१४.३९ ॥
Then he saw divine young men, wearing gold diadems and garlands, resembling Indra, with the splendor of fire and the sun, wearing bound turbans, beautiful in form, broad-chested and as tall as palm trees.
1.214.40
दिव्यैर्वस्त्रैरजोभिः सुगन्धै-
र्माल्यैश्चाग्र्यैः शोभमानानतीव।
साक्षात्त्र्यक्षान्वा वसूंश्चापि रुद्रा-
नादित्यान्वा सर्वगुणोपपन्नान् ॥ १.२१४.४० ॥
Shining exceedingly in divine garments and unfading fragrant garlands, as if they were the three-eyed lord himself, the Vasus, the Rudras or the Ādityas, endowed with every excellence.
1.214.41
तान्पूर्वेन्द्रानभिवीक्ष्याभिरूपा-
त्र्शक्रात्मजं चेन्द्ररूपं निशम्य।
प्रीतो राजा द्रुपदो विस्मितश्च ।
दिव्यां मायां तामवेक्ष्याप्रमेयाम् ॥ १.२१४.४१ ॥
Having looked upon those former Indras, the handsome son of Indra, and the form of Indra, King Drupada was pleased and astonished at that immeasurable divine illusion.
1.214.42
तां चैवाग्र्यां स्त्रियमतिरूपयुक्तां ।
दिव्यां साक्षात्सोमवह्निप्रकाशाम्।
योग्यां तेषां रूपतेजोयशोभिः ।
पत्नी मत्वा हृष्टवान्पार्थिवेन्द्रः ॥ १.२१४.४२ ॥
And seeing that foremost woman, surpassingly beautiful, divine, radiant like the moon and fire, fit for them in beauty, splendour and fame, the lord of kings rejoiced, thinking her a wife for them.
1.214.43
स तद्दृष्ट्वा महदाश्चर्यरूपं ।
जग्राह पादौ सत्यवत्याः सुतस्य।
नैतच्चित्रं परमर्षे त्वयीति ।
प्रसन्नचेताः स उवाच चैनम् ॥ १.२१४.४३ ॥
Seeing that great and marvellous form, he seized the feet of Satyavatī's son, and with a serene mind said to him: 'O supreme sage, this is not strange in you.'
1.214.44
इदं चापि पुरावृत्तं तन्निबोध च भूमिम ।
कीर्त्यमानं नृपर्षीणां पूर्वेषां दारकर्मणि ॥ १.२१४.४४ ॥
Hear also this ancient account, O lord of the earth, which is recounted concerning the marriage of the royal sages of old.
1.214.45
नितन्तुर्नाम राजर्षिर्बभूव भुवि विश्रुतः ।
तस्य पुत्रा महेष्वासा बभूवुः पञ्च भूमिताः ॥ १.२१४.४५ ॥
A royal sage named Nitantu became renowned on earth. He had five sons, great archers.
1.214.46
साल्वेयः शूरसेनश्च श्रुतसेनश्च वीर्यवान् ।
तिन्दुसारोऽतिसारश्च क्षत्रियाः क्रतुयाजिनः ॥ १.२१४.४६ ॥
Sālveya, Śūrasena, the mighty Śrutasena, Tindusāra and Atisāra — these were warriors who performed sacrifices.
1.214.47
नातिचक्रमुरन्योन्यमन्योन्यस्य प्रियंवदाः ।
अनीर्ष्यवो धर्मविदः सौम्याश्चैव प्रियकराः ॥ १.२१४.४७ ॥
They did not transgress against one another; they spoke pleasantly to each other, were free from envy, knowers of dharma, gentle and truly doers of what is pleasing.
1.214.48
एतान्नैतन्तवान्पञ्च शिबिपुत्री स्वयंवरे ।
अवाप स्वपतीन्वीरान्भौमाश्वी मनुजाधिपान् ॥ १.२१४.४८ ॥
At her self-choice ceremony, the daughter of Śibi obtained these five heroic lords of men, the Naitantavas, as her husbands—she who was Bhaumāśvī.
1.214.49
वीणेव मधुरारावा गान्धर्वस्वरमूर्च्छिता ।
उत्तमा सर्वनारीणां भौमाश्वी ह्यभवत्तदा ॥ १.२१४.४९ ॥
Sweet-voiced as a lute and endowed with the tones of Gandharva music, Bhaumāśvī then became the best of all women.
1.214.50

बभूवुः पृथिवीपालाः सर्वैः समुदिता गुणैः ॥ १.२१४.५० ॥
Those whose five husbands were the Naitantavas, bulls among kṣatriyas, protectors of the earth, endowed with all good qualities.
1.214.51
तेषामेकाभवद्भार्या राज्ञामौशीनरी शुभा ।
भौमाश्वी नाम भद्रं ते तथारूपगुणान्विता ॥ १.२१४.५१ ॥
Of these kings there was one wife, the auspicious daughter of the Uśīnara line named Bhaumāśvī—may it go well with you—endowed with such qualities.
1.214.52
पञ्चभ्यः पञ्चधा पञ्च दायादान्सा व्यजायत ।
तेभ्यो नैतन्तवेभ्यस्तु राजशार्दूल वै तदा ॥ १.२१४.५२ ॥
From these five she bore five heirs in five ways, O tiger among kings, for those Naitantavas, at that time.
1.214.53
पृथगाख्याऽभवत्तेषां भ्रातॄणां पञ्चधा भुवि ।
यथावत्कीर्त्यमानांस्ताञ्छृणु मे राजसत्तम ॥ १.२१४.५३ ॥
Those brothers came to have separate names on earth in five ways. Hear them from me as they are duly named, O best of kings.

तथैव द्रुपदैषा ते सुता वै देवरूपिणी।
पञ्चानां विहिता पत्नी कृष्णा पार्षत्यनिन्दिता ॥ १.२१४.५५ ॥
Thus Bhaumāśvī, renowned on earth, became one wife. Likewise this divine-formed daughter of Drupada, your daughter — Kṛṣṇā, daughter of Pṛṣata's line, blameless, appointed as the wife of the five.
1.214.56
आसीत्तपोवंने काचिदृषेः कन्या महात्मनः ।
नाध्यगच्छत्पतिं सा तु कन्या रूपवती सती ॥ १.२१४.५६ ॥
In a forest of asceticism there was a daughter of a great-souled sage; beautiful and virtuous, that maiden did not obtain a husband.

तामुवाचेश्वरः प्रीतो वृणु काममिति स्वयम् ॥ १.२१४.५७ ॥
With fierce asceticism she pleased Śaṅkara. Pleased, the Lord himself said to her: 'Choose the boon of your desire.'

एकं पतिं गुणोपेतं त्वत्तोऽर्हामीति शङ्कर ॥ १.२१४.६० ॥
Propitiating the god, she spoke again: "O Śaṅkara, I deserve from you one husband endowed with virtues."

पञ्चकृत्वस्त्वयोक्तोऽहं पतिं देहीति वै पुनः ॥ १.२१४.६१ ॥
The god of gods, pleased in heart, again spoke auspicious words to her: "Five times you have said to me, 'Give me a husband.'"

देहमन्यं गतायास्ते सर्वमेतद्भविष्यति ॥ १.२१४.६२ ॥
"It shall be so, O auspicious one; may that blessing be yours. When you have gone to another body, all this will come to pass."

द्रुपदैषा हि सा जज्ञे सुता वै देवरूपिणी ।
पञ्चानां विहिता पत्नी कृष्णा पार्षत्यनिन्दिता ॥ १.२१४.६३ ॥
This daughter of Drupada was indeed born of divine form. Appointed as the wife of five, Kṛṣṇā, the daughter of Pṛṣata, is blameless.
1.214.64
सैव नालायनी भूत्वा रूपेणाप्रतिमा भुवि ।
मौद्गल्यं पतिमास्थाय शिवाद्वरमभीप्सती ॥ १.२१४.६४ ॥

सेह तप्त्वा तपो घोरं दुहितृत्वं तवागता ॥ १.२१४.६६ ॥

1.214.67
सैषा देवी रुचिरा देवजुष्टा ।
पञ्चानामेका स्वकृतेनेह कर्मणा।
सृष्टा स्वयं देवपत्नी स्वयंभुवा ।
श्रुत्वा राजन्द्रुपदेष्टं कुरुष्व ॥ १.२१४.६७ ॥
That lovely goddess, cherished by the gods, has become one of the five through her own deed here. Svayambhū himself created her as a god's wife. O king, having heard Drupada's wish, act accordingly.
