A celebrated sage.

Birth.

He was a son of 痴颈艣惫腻尘颈迟谤补. He was a brahmav膩d墨. (艢濒辞办补 52, Chapter 4, 础苍耻艣腻蝉补苍补 Parva.

How he got his name.

There is no record of his original name in any of the 笔耻谤腻峁嘺蝉. He got his name 骋腻濒补惫补 later. There is a story about this both in 顿别惫墨产丑腻驳补惫补迟补 and 贬补谤颈惫补峁兣沘. It is as follows:

There was once a King called 础谤耻峁嘺 in the family of 惭腻苍诲丑腻迟腻. 础谤耻峁嘺 got a son and he was named Satyavrata. (It was this Satyavrata who later became the well famed 罢谤颈艣补峁卥耻). When Satyavrata was a youngster he once went inside the marriage hall of a brahmin and kidnapped the bride. Furious at this evil deed of his son the king sent him out from his palace and Satyavrata roamed about aimlessly.

Nature protested against this deed of the King abandoning his heir and there was no rain in the country for twelve years. The people were all put to great trouble. Among those who suffered were the wife and children of 痴颈艣惫腻尘颈迟谤补. 痴颈艣惫腻尘颈迟谤补 had at that time gone to the shores of the river 碍补耻艣颈办墨, for doing penance. The family of 痴颈艣惫腻尘颈迟谤补 was in great distress living without any means for food. The sight of the children crying for food to appease their hunger pained their mother much. So she decided to sell one child and feed the others by what she got from the sale. It was better to be without one child than all the children dying out of hunger.

She made a rope out of darbha leaves and tying it round the neck of one child took it to the market for sale. Both the mother and child were weeping profusely on their way. Satyavrata saw them and took pity on them. When Satyavrata heard their sad story and knew that the woman was the wife of 痴颈艣惫腻尘颈迟谤补 he told her thus: "Oh, Venerable Lady, you need not sell this boy. Untie the rope round his neck and throw it away. I will look after your family till the return of your husband. I will daily bring food for you all and hang it on a tree near your 腻艣谤补尘补."

The mother was extremely happy to hear this and she at once untied the rope round the neck of the boy and the boy from thence became known as 骋腻濒补惫补. (For details see under 罢谤颈艣补峁卥耻).

Guru诲补办峁�i峁嚹� of 骋腻濒补惫补.

骋腻濒补惫补 continued his education under his father. At that time Dharmadeva to test 痴颈艣惫腻尘颈迟谤补 came to him disguised as 痴补蝉颈峁ａ弓丑补. 痴颈艣惫腻尘颈迟谤补 came out with rice to receive the guest but by that time the guest had disappeared. But 痴颈艣惫腻尘颈迟谤补 remained there with the rice for hundred years till Dharmadeva returned. All these years 骋腻濒补惫补 looked after 痴颈艣惫腻尘颈迟谤补鈥檚 comforts. 痴颈艣惫腻尘颈迟谤补 was immensely pleased with 骋腻濒补惫补 and allowed him to go away free without any 驳耻谤耻诲补办峁�i峁嚹� when his education was over. 骋腻濒补惫补 wanted to give some 诲补办峁�i峁嚹� but 痴颈艣惫腻尘颈迟谤补 refused to accept it. 骋腻濒补惫补 insisted on giving and then 痴颈艣惫腻尘颈迟谤补 asked him to give whatever he liked but 骋腻濒补惫补 wanted the Dak峁�i峁嚹� to be named. Disgusted with this stubbornness 痴颈艣惫腻尘颈迟谤补 said "Go and get me eight hundred horses each with one of its ears black". 骋腻濒补惫补 was shocked to hear the demand and greatly worried roamed about in search of horses of the type specified. 骋补谤耻岣峚 taking pity on his sad plight took him to the palace of 驰补测腻迟颈. Hearing the story of 骋腻濒补惫补 驰补测腻迟颈 sent his daughter 惭腻诲丑补惫墨 with 骋腻濒补惫补 saying that if she was given in marriage to any king he would give him the eight hundred horses of the type he required.

骋腻濒补惫补 took 惭腻诲丑补惫墨 to 贬补谤测补艣惫补, a King of the 滨办峁�v腻办耻 line of Kings. 贬补谤测补艣惫补 was doing penance at that time to obtain a child. 骋腻濒补惫补 said that 贬补谤测补艣惫补 would get a son of 惭腻诲丑补惫墨 and he should, therefore, accept 惭腻诲丑补惫墨 and give him in return eight hundred horses each with one ear black. 贬补谤测补艣惫补 was amenable to the terms but the only difficulty was that he had only two hundred horses of the type specified. Finding this difficulty 惭腻诲丑补惫墨 said "Oh, 骋腻濒补惫补 please do not worry on that account. I have a boon from a brahmav膩d墨 sage that I would remain a maiden even after delivery. So give me in marriage to this King and get two hundred horses. After giving birth to a son to this King take me to another King and get two hundred horses from him and then to another and thus by giving me to four Kings you can get the eight hundred horses you require."

骋腻濒补惫补 liked this plan and so when 惭腻诲丑补惫墨 gave birth to a son he took her to 顿颈惫辞诲腻蝉补, 搁腻箩腻 of 碍腻艣墨. When a son was born to him 骋腻濒补惫补 took her to 鲍艣墨苍补谤补, King of Bhoja. 骋腻濒补惫补 thus got six hundred horses but there was nobody else to give him the remaining two hundred. When 骋腻濒补惫补 was contemplating as to what he should do next 骋补谤耻岣峚 came to his rescue. He advised 骋腻濒补惫补 to give six hundred horses and 惭腻诲丑补惫墨 in lieu of the remaining two hundred horses to 痴颈艣惫腻尘颈迟谤补. 骋腻濒补惫补 gave 痴颈艣惫腻尘颈迟谤补 the horses and 惭腻诲丑补惫墨 and pleased with the 驳耻谤耻诲补办峁�i峁嚹� 痴颈艣惫腻尘颈迟谤补 blessed 骋腻濒补惫补. 痴颈艣惫腻尘颈迟谤补 got a son named 础峁ａ弓补办补 of Madhav墨. (See under 础峁ａ弓补办补).

骋腻濒补惫补 and Citrasena.

骋腻濒补惫补 was once having his evening prayers in the river when the spittings from the mouth of Citrasena who was travelling by air above fell on the 辫奴箩腻 materials of 骋腻濒补惫补. 骋腻濒补惫补 went and complained to 艢r墨 碍峁涐梗峁嘺 of this and 碍峁涐梗峁嘺 in haste promised to bring before 骋腻濒补惫补 the head of Citrasena before the sun set. 狈腻谤补诲补 who heard this went and informed Citrasena of 碍峁涐梗峁嘺鈥檚 vow. Citrasena was frightened to death. But 狈腻谤补诲补 asked him not to lose hope and advised 厂补苍诲丑测腻 and 痴补濒墨, wives of Citrasena, to approach 厂耻产丑补诲谤腻, sister of 碍峁涐梗峁嘺, for protection. Both of them went to 厂耻产丑补诲谤腻 and made a grand fire-pit in front of her palace. Citrasena decided to end his life by jumping into the fire and as he was circling the pit his wives wept loudly. Since her husband Arjuna was away from the palace 厂耻产丑补诲谤腻 herself ran to the place from where she heard the cries. When they saw 厂耻产丑补诲谤腻 they begged for 'Ma峁単alyabhik峁Ｄ�' (a boon to live with one鈥檚 husband). 厂耻产丑补诲谤腻 agreed to give them that. Then she heard their story in full and only then did she realise that she had undertaken to do the impossible. Yet, to help 厂耻产丑补诲谤腻, Arjuna agreed to protect Citrasena. When 艢r墨 碍峁涐梗峁嘺 attacked Citrasena Arjuna defended. The fight then ensued between Arjuna and 碍峁涐梗峁嘺. Both had very powerful and divine weapons and the world stood on the verge of a collapse by their fight. Then 厂耻产丑补诲谤腻 did a brave thing. She stood between the two and requested for a cease-fire. Then 艢r墨 碍峁涐梗峁嘺 asked Citrasena to bow down and touch the feet of 骋腻濒补惫补. 骋腻濒补惫补 pardoned him. (Padma Pur膩峁嘺).

罢补辫辞诲腻苍补.

骋腻濒补惫补 once gave 驰补测腻迟颈 one eighth portion of the goodness accrued to him by his long penance. (See 驰补测腻迟颈 for details).

骋腻濒补惫补 gets a horse.

P膩t膩laketu, a demon, used to give trouble to 骋腻濒补惫补 daily while he used to do penance. Once this demon sent a deep hot breath to the sky and then a horse fell from the sky. Soon an unknown voice from air said, "This is a very strong horse and it would travel many a yojana in an hour." 骋腻濒补惫补 took that horse and gave it to 峁歵补诲丑惫补箩补. (V膩mana Pur膩峁嘺, Chapter 59).
