Birth.

There is an interesting story about the birth of Jamadagni. 骋腻诲丑颈 was the son of king Ku艣膩峁僢a. A daughter named 厂补迟测补惫补迟墨 was born to 骋腻诲丑颈. The hermit Rc墨ka giving a dowry of one thousand horses, each with one black ear, married 厂补迟测补惫补迟墨. Once 厂补迟测补惫补迟墨 told her husband that herself and her mother wanted to get a child each. After the sacrifice of oblations to Agni (fire), 峁歝墨办补 took two parts filled with boiled rice and gave them to 厂补迟测补惫补迟墨, with mantras (spells). The radiance of 叠谤补丑尘腻 was invoked into one pot and the radiance of 碍峁Ｄ乼谤补 was invoked into the other. The hermit had asked 厂补迟测补惫补迟墨 to eat the rice into which the radiance of 叠谤补丑尘腻 had been invoked and to give the other pot to her mother. But the daughter and mother changed the pots secretly and 厂补迟测补惫补迟墨 ate the rice in the pot into which 碍峁Ｄ乼谤补 radiance was invoked and gave the pot of rice filled with 叠谤腻丑尘补-radiance to her mother. Both the women conceived. As the child grew in the womb the radiance of 叠谤补丑尘腻 shone on the face of the mother and 碍峁Ｄ乼谤补 lustre was seen on the face of 厂补迟测补惫补迟墨, Rc墨ka asked 厂补迟测补惫补迟墨 for the reason. She admitted the secret interchange of the pot.

厂补迟测补惫补迟墨 and her mother both delivered at the same time. 厂补迟测补惫补迟墨 got the son Jamadagni, who was the embodiment of 碍峁Ｄ乼谤补 tejas and the child with 叠谤腻丑尘补 tejas born to the mother was 痴颈艣惫腻尘颈迟谤补. Therefore, in some 笔耻谤腻峁嘺蝉 痴颈艣惫腻尘颈迟谤补 is described as the uncle of Jamadagni whereas in some others they are said to be brothers. (叠谤补丑尘腻峁囜笉a 笔耻谤腻峁嘺, Chapter 57).

A house-holder.

When Jamadagni grew up he made a tour and visited the holy places one by one and reached the palace of King Prasenajit of the family of 滨办峁�v腻办耻. He saw 搁别峁嘘办腻 the beautiful daughter of King Prasenajit and fell in love with her. He requested Prasenajit for the hand of 搁别峁嘘办腻. The King, without raising any objection gave his daughter 搁别峁嘘办腻 in marriage to Jamadagni. The couple came to the bank of the river 狈补谤尘补诲腻 and erecting a hermitage began 'tapas' (penance). Four sons, 峁歶ma峁噕膩n, Suhotra, Vasu and 痴颈艣惫腻惫补蝉耻 were born to Jamadagni by 搁别峁嘘办腻. (叠谤补丑尘腻峁囜笉a 笔耻谤腻峁嘺, Chapter 58).

The birth of Paru艣u r膩ma.

Because of the wickedness of the 碍峁�a迟谤颈测补 Kings, the goddess Earth became miserable. She made a representation to 叠谤补丑尘腻 who took her to the sea of Milk and told 惭补丑腻惫颈峁ａ箛耻 everything. 惭补丑腻惫颈峁ａ箛耻 promised to take an incarnation as the son of Jamadagni and destroy all the wicked Kings. Accordingly 搁别峁嘘办腻 gave birth to 笔补谤补艣耻谤腻尘补, who was an incarnation of 惭补丑腻惫颈峁ａ箛耻. (叠谤补丑尘腻峁囜笉a 笔耻谤腻峁嘺, Chapter 59).

Jamadagni getting the bow of 痴颈峁ａ箛耻.

Once the devas (gods) desired to know who, of 艢颈惫补 and 痴颈峁ａ箛耻 was the more powerful. They informed 叠谤补丑尘腻 of their desire. 叠谤补丑尘腻 asked 痴颈艣惫补办补谤尘腻 to make two tremendous bows. He gave one to 艢颈惫补 and the other to 痴颈峁ａ箛耻. The bow which 痴颈峁ａ箛耻 got was known as 痴补颈峁ａ箛补惫补肠腻辫补 and that which 艢颈惫补 got was known as 艢aiva肠腻辫补. After this 叠谤补丑尘腻 caused enmity between 艢颈惫补 and 痴颈峁ａ箛耻. A terrible battle ensued between 艢颈惫补 and 痴颈峁ａ箛耻. After a while the 艢aiva肠腻辫补 became less effective. At the request of the devas, the fight was stopped. The devas decided that 痴颈峁ａ箛耻 was superior to 艢颈惫补, in power. 艢颈惫补 got angry at this decision and gave his bow to 顿别惫补谤腻迟补 Janaka, the King of Videha. It was this bow that 艢r墨 搁腻尘补 broke at the marriage of 厂墨迟腻.

Seeing that 艢颈惫补 had given away his 肠腻辫补 (bow) 惭补丑腻惫颈峁ａ箛耻 gave his bow to his devotee, the hermit 峁歝墨办补. That 痴补颈峁ａ箛补惫补 肠腻辫补 was given to Jamadagni by 峁歝墨办补. Thus the famous 痴补颈峁ａ箛补惫补 肠腻辫补 arrived at the hermitage of Jamadagni. (痴腻濒尘墨办颈 搁腻尘腻测补峁嘺, 叠腻濒补 碍腻峁囜笉补, Sarga 75).

搁别峁嘘办腻 was killed.

笔补谤补艣耻谤腻尘补 became fourteen years old. Jamadagni went to the forest to gather fruits, roots etc. After completing the cleansing work of the hermitage, leaving 笔补谤补艣耻谤腻尘补 in the forest, 搁别峁嘘办腻 went to the bank of the river 狈补谤尘补诲腻 (搁别惫腻) to fetch water. When she reached the river, 碍腻谤迟补惫墨谤测腻谤箩耻苍补 and his wives were playing in water. She waited for them to go. When they were gone she got into the river. But as the water was muddy because of the play, she walked a little to the east where there was pure water. She saw there Citraratha the King of 厂腻濒惫补 playing with his wife in the water. How beautiful they were! She had never seen so beautiful a woman or so handsome a man. She stood there looking at them for a while. When she reached the hermitage with water, Jamadagni had already returned a long while ago. He had returned weary and tired of the heat of the midday-sun. He did not see his wife in the hermitage. He had been sitting very angry when 搁别峁嘘办腻 returned with water. She put the pot down and bowed before her husband and told him the reason for her being late. When he heard the reason his anger blazed. He called his sons one by one and ordered them to kill her. But the four elder sons did not dare to execute his order saying that slaughter of a woman was a great sin. But 笔补谤补艣耻谤腻尘补 came forward and by a cutting-arrow cut off the head of his mother. The father called the four sons who disobeyed him and cursed them thus:

"Since you have disobeyed the order of your father, because of your ignorance, you shall become foresters and live in forest."

Being overwhelmed with sorrow at the death of his mother, 笔补谤补艣耻谤腻尘补 swooned and fell down. When his anger subsided, discretion dawned on Jamadagni. He aroused his son and took him on his lap and asked him what boon he wanted for having accomplished the unaccomplishable task. 笔补谤补艣耻谤腻尘补鈥檚 request was that his mother should be brought to life again. The hermit was pleased and he brought 搁别峁嘘办腻 to life again. (叠谤补丑尘腻峁囜笉a 笔耻谤腻峁嘺, Chapter 60).

The sun gave Jamadagni an umbrella and sandals.

Jamadagni was killed.

Once 碍腻谤迟补惫墨谤测腻谤箩耻苍补, with his minister Candragupta and some attendants had been hunting in the forests on the banks of the river 狈补谤尘补诲腻. It was noon. The hunters grew tired of hunger and thirst. They came to the hermitage of Jamadagni. The hermit called his divine cow 厂耻艣墨濒腻 and ordered her to give food to the King and his party. Within a few seconds meals were got ready for thousands of people. The King and his attendants had a feast. On their return journey the wonderful cow 厂耻艣墨濒腻 was the subject of their talk. The King wanted to get the cow which possessed divine power. So he sent his minister Candragupta to the hermitage of Jamadagni with instructions to get the cow 厂耻艣墨濒腻 in exchange for a crore of cows or even half of the kingdom. But the hermit was not prepared to give the cow. The minister and his men caught the cow by force and went away. The hermit, filled with grief, followed the party a long way through the forest, and requested Candragupta to return the cow. Candragupta got angry and struck him to death, and took the cow to the palace, in the capital city of 惭腻丑颈峁�m补迟墨.

After waiting for a long time, 搁别峁嘘办腻 started in search of her husband. She saw Jamadagni lying almost dead, in a pool of blood. She fell down and beating her breast cried aloud. 笔补谤补艣耻谤腻尘补 with 础办峁泃补惫谤补峁嘺 and other disciples came there. When she saw her son 笔补谤补艣耻谤腻尘补, she beat her breast twentyone times* and cried. 笔补谤补艣耻谤腻尘补, took an oath that since his mother beat her breast twentyone times and cried, he would travel around twentyone times and put an end to the 碍峁�a迟谤颈测补 Kings. After that they took the dead body of Jamadagni and placed it on fire, and began to sing the song of 痴颈峁ａ箛耻. Then the hermit 艢耻办谤补 came by that way and with the help of 惭峁泃补蝉补帽箩墨惫补苍墨 brought Jamadagni to life again. The lost cow 厂耻艣墨濒腻 also returned without her calf. (叠谤补丑尘腻峁囜笉a 笔耻谤腻峁嘺, Chapter 69; 惭补丑腻产丑腻谤补迟补 艢腻苍迟颈 Parva, Chapter 49).

Death of Jamadagni.

笔补谤补艣耻谤腻尘补 and 础办峁泃补惫谤补峁嘺 went to the city of 惭腻丑颈峁�m补迟墨 with the intention of bringing the calf of 厂耻艣墨濒腻 back. They stood at the gate of the city and challenged 碍腻谤迟补惫墨谤测腻谤箩耻苍补 for a fight. 碍腻谤迟补惫墨谤测腻谤箩耻苍补 came out with his army. In the battle which ensued, 碍腻谤迟补惫墨谤测补 and his sons and most of his warriors fell dead. 笔补谤补艣耻谤腻尘补 and 础办峁泃补惫谤补峁嘺 returned with the calf. Jamadagni asked 笔补谤补艣耻谤腻尘补 to go to Mahendragiri and do penance in order to mitigate the sin of killing a large number of people. When 笔补谤补艣耻谤腻尘补 had gone for penance, 艢奴谤补蝉别苍补 a son of 碍腻谤迟补惫墨谤测腻谤箩耻苍补 came with his men to the hermitage, cut off the head of Jamadagni and took it away. 笔补谤补艣耻谤腻尘补 and the disciples of Jamadagni placed the dead body of Jamadagni on the pyre and burnt it. 搁别峁嘘办腻 jumped into that fire and died. After this 笔补谤补艣耻谤腻尘补 began his twentyone tours for the extermination of the 碍峁�a迟谤颈测补 Kings. (叠谤补丑尘腻峁囜笉a 笔耻谤腻峁嘺, Chapter 86).
