General definition (in Hinduism)

: Apam Napat: Indian Mythology

1) Arjuna was the third Pandava, born to Kunti, the wife of Pandu, by the grace of Indra. He rivalled his divine father Indra in his prowess in arms. It was said that none of the mortals and few of the Gods could stand up to him in battle, such was his skill with his bow, Gandiva. His guru is Drona, who had taught all the Pandavas and Kauravas.

He is an incarnation of Nara, one of the primeval twins. He won the hand of Draupadi, the Panchala princess, by his feat of marksmanship and she became the common wife of all the five Pandavas. In addition to her he married many other women during his voluntary exile. One of his wives is Subhadra, the sister of Krishna, through who be had a valiant son Abhimanyu. Abhimanyu was slain treacherously by the great warriors on the Kaurava side, who could not defeat the young warrior in fair combat.

Arjuna's friendship with Krishna is legendary. Krishna is both his friend and his teacher. Krishna was Arjuna's charioteer in the great battle of Kurukshetra. The principal rival of Arjuna was Karna, whose skill with the bow came close to matching Arjuna's. So evenly matched were these two warriors, that Arjuna had to resort to an ignoble stratagem to slay Karna, killing him with a missile when Karna was attempting to move his chariot that had gotten stuck in the mud. This shameful act was against the laws of combat prevailing at that time.

2) Aruna was the son of the great sage Kashyapa and Vinata, a daughter of Daksha. His mother had obtained a boon from her husband that she would have two offspring who surpassed the thousand sons (the serpents) of her sister (and co-wife) Kadru in glory. She gave birth to two eggs, which did not hatch for a long time. In her impatience, she broke open one of them and found Aruna inside it, but he had an undeveloped lower body. He cursed his mother to bondage for her impatience. He then took to the skies and achieved great glory by becoming the charioteer of Surya, the sun.

Garuda, the mount of Lord Vishnu is his brother. He emerged from the other egg, which Vinata had left undisturbed for a thousand years. The story of the birth of Garuda and Aruna is told in greater detail here.

5) Name of the third P膩峁囜笉ava who was a son of Kunt墨 by Indra and hence called 啶愢え啷嵿う啷嵿ぐ啶� (aindri) also. [Arjuna was so called because he was 'white' or 'pure in actions' (p峁泃hivy膩峁� caturant膩y膩峁� var峁噊 me durlabha岣� sama岣� | karomi karma 艣uddha峁� ca tena m膩marjana峁� vidu岣�). He was taught the use of arms by Dro峁嘺 and was his favourite pupil. By his skill in arms he won Draupad墨 at her Svaya峁僾ara (see Draupad墨). For an involuntary transgression he went into temporary exile and during that time he learnt the science of arms from Para艣ur膩ma. He married Ul奴p墨, a N膩ga Princess, by whom he had a son named Ir膩vat, and also Chitr膩峁単ad膩, daughter of the king of Ma峁噄pura, who bore him a son named Babhruv膩hana. During this exile he visited Dv膩rak膩, and with the help and advice of K峁涐梗峁嘺 succeeded in marrying Subhadr膩. By her he had a son named Abhimanyu. Afterwards he obtained the bow (G膩峁囜笉iva from the god Agni whom he assisted in burning the Kh膩峁囜笉va forest. When Dharma, his eldest brother, lost the kingdom by gambling, and the five brothers went into exile, he went to the Him膩layas to propitiate the gods and to obtain from them celestial weapons for use in the contemplated war against Kauravas. There he fought with 艢iva who appeared in the disguise of a Kir膩ta; but when he discovered the true character of his adversary he worshipped him and 艢iva gave him the P膩艣upat膩stra. Indra, Varu峁嘺, Yama and Kubera also presented him with their own weapons. In the 13th year of their exile, the P膩峁囜笉avas entered the service of the King of Vir膩峁璦 and he had to act the part of a eunuch, and music and dancing master. In the great war with the Kauravas Arjuna took a very distinguished part. He secured the assistance of K峁涐梗峁嘺 who acted as his charioteer and related to him the Bhagavadg墨t膩 when on the first day of the battle he hesitated to bend his bow against his own kinsmen. In the course of the great struggle he slew or vanquished several redoubtable warriors on the side of the Kauravas, such as Jayadratha, Bh墨峁�ma, Kar峁嘺 &c. After Yudhi峁ａ弓hira had been installed sovereign of Hastin膩pura, he resolved to perform the A艣vamedha sacrifice, and a horse was let loose with Arjuna as its guardian. Arjuna followed it through many cities and Countries and fought with many kings. At the city of Ma峁噄pura he had to fight with his own son Babhruv膩hana and was killed; but he was restored to life by a charm supplied by his wife Ul奴p墨. He traversed the whole of Bharatakha峁嘾a and returned to Hastin膩pura, loaded with spoils and tributes, and the great horse-sacrifice was then duly performed. He was afterwards called by K峁涐梗na to Dv膩rak膩 amid the internecine struggles of the Y膩davas and there he performed the funeral ceremonies of Vasudeva and K峁涐梗峁嘺. Soon after this the five P膩峁卍avas repaired to heaven having installed Par墨k峁�it -the only surviving son of Abhimanyu-on the throne of Hastin膩pura. Arjuna was the bravest of the P膩峁嘾avas, high-minded, generous, upright, handsome and the most prominent figure of all his brothers. He has several appellations, such a P膩rtha, Gud膩ke艣a, Savyas膩ch墨, Dhana帽jaya, Ph膩lguna, Kir墨tin, J墨峁ａ箛u, 艢vetav膩hana, G膩峁囜笉ivin &c.] cf. arjana岣� ph膩lguno ji峁ａ箛u岣� kir墨峁��� 艣vetav膩hana岣� | b墨bhatsurvijaya岣� k峁涐梗峁嘺岣� savyas膩c墨 dhana帽jaya岣� ||
