Birth.

顿补艣补谤补迟丑补 was the son of Aja, of the family of 滨办峁�v腻办耻, born of his wife 滨苍诲耻尘补迟墨.*

顿补艣补谤补迟丑补鈥檚 hunt.

Once during the early part of his life 顿补艣补谤补迟丑补 was walking through a forest engaged in hunting. He reached the bank of the river 厂补谤补测奴. It was evening and the forest was thick. He walked in search of wild animals. The night was advancing and darkness getting thicker. Then he heard a sound from the river as if an elephant was drinking water. Thinking it to be an elephant 顿补艣补谤补迟丑补 sent an arrow in the direction from which the sound came. Instantly he heard a man crying with pain. The king was disappointed. He ran to the spot and saw a hermit boy lying in a pool of blood beating his limbs on the ground and crying. The waterpot he had been dipping in the water lay close by. In answer to the questions of the King, the hermit boy whose name was 艢谤补惫补峁嘺,** said, "Oh King! What wrong have I done? My parents are sitting thirsty and blind with age, in the hermitage closeby. I, their only son, was dipping the pot to take water to them, when you sent the arrow at me. So, please take some water to them in this pot and console them."

Hearing this, with tears the King drew out the fatal arrow from the body of the boy and with that the boy 艢谤补惫补峁嘺 said good bye to the world. 顿补艣补谤补迟丑补 took water in the pot and went in search of the hermitage in the darkness. With difficulty he found out the hermitage and as he drew near, the aged parents of the boy heard his footsteps and called him eagerly. The King, with tearful eyes told them what had happened. There was loud wailing and crying in the hermitage. According to their wish the King took them to where their son lay. Then the King made a fire and placed the dead body of the boy in it. The aged and blind parents cursed 顿补艣补谤补迟丑补, "You also will die of loss of children". Then they also entered the fire and were burnt along with their son鈥檚 dead body. (痴腻濒尘墨办颈 搁腻尘腻测补峁嘺, 础测辞诲丑测腻 碍腻峁囜笉补, Sarga 63).

Marriage.

顿补艣补谤补迟丑补 had three wives, named 碍补耻艣补濒测腻, 碍补颈办别测墨 and 厂耻尘颈迟谤腻.

碍补颈办别测墨 given a boon.

There was a great battle in the world of the gods between the asuras and the gods. According to the request of the devas, 顿补艣补谤补迟丑补 went to the world of the devas to help them. 碍补颈办别测墨 also went with 顿补艣补谤补迟丑补. In a severe fight with 艢补尘产补谤补, an asura, 顿补艣补谤补迟丑补 fell down unconscious. 碍补颈办别测墨 took him away from the battle-field. When he recovered the King got into the chariot and fought more fiercely than before. This time the wheel-bolt of one of the wheels of the chariot of 顿补艣补谤补迟丑补 slipped away. Without informing her husband of this danger, 碍补颈办别测墨 inserted her finger into the bolt-hole and prevented the wheel from sliding away. The King won the battle. After the battle, when the King came to know of the services rendered by 碍补颈办别测墨, he promised her two boons. 碍补颈办别测墨 told the King that she would ask for them later, when she needed them. Then they returned to 础测辞诲丑测腻. (痴腻濒尘墨办颈 搁腻尘腻测补峁嘺, Sarga 9, Ka峁僷a 搁腻尘腻测补峁嘺, 叠腻濒补 碍腻峁囜笉补).

Administration of 顿补艣补谤补迟丑补.

The capital of 顿补艣补谤补迟丑补鈥檚 kingdom of Kosala, was 础测辞诲丑测腻. This city was situated on the bank of river 厂补谤补测奴. 顿补艣补谤补迟丑补 was as famous in 础测辞诲丑测腻 as Indra was in the realm of the gods. There were palaces in 础测辞诲丑测腻 for the kings who brought tribute to stay. In short, as mentioned in 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 5, 础测辞诲丑测腻 was the heaven on earth.

Ministers.

顿补艣补谤补迟丑补 had eight ministers, 厂峁涐梗峁璱, Jayanta, Vijaya, 厂颈诲诲丑腻谤迟丑补, 搁腻峁ａ弓谤补惫补谤诲丑补苍补, 础艣辞办补, 顿丑补谤尘补辫腻濒补, and Sumantra. (Agni 笔耻谤腻峁嘺, Chapter 6).

The name 顿补艣补谤补迟丑补.

The real name of 顿补艣补谤补迟丑补 was Nemi. Once the unattackable and invincible asura 艢a峁僢ara conquered the throne of Indra. At the request of 叠谤补丑尘腻 and the gods, this King reached heaven and destroyed the armies of the asuras very easily. 艢a峁僢ara got angry, assumed ten shapes and attacked the King from ten points at the same time. The king confronted the ten 艢a峁僢aras at ten points, at the same time, and killed all of them at the same moment. Because he faced his chariot to ten points at the same time and fought with enemies on those ten points 叠谤补丑尘腻 appreciated his valiant fighting and charioteeering and gave him the name '顿补艣补谤补迟丑补' (one who is capable of driving the chariot to ten points at the same time). Thus his original name was forgotten and he came to be known only by the name given him later. (Ka峁僷a 搁腻尘腻测补峁嘺, Yuddha 碍腻峁囜笉补).

Birth of Sons.

碍补耻蝉补濒测腻 was the first wife of 顿补艣补谤补迟丑补. She was the daughter of the King of Uttara Kosala. A daughter named 艢腻苍迟腻 was born to 顿补艣补谤补迟丑补 by 碍补耻蝉补濒测腻. After this, no sons or daughters were born to 顿补艣补谤补迟丑补 for a long time.

At this juncture 尝辞尘补辫腻诲补, the king of 础峁単补 who was the class-mate and a great friend of 顿补艣补谤补迟丑补, came to 础测辞诲丑测腻 on a friendly visit. He also had no children. So he entreated 顿补艣补谤补迟丑补 to give 艢腻苍迟腻 to him as a foster-daughter. Thus he took away 艢腻苍迟腻 to 础峁単补. 尝辞尘补辫腻诲补 gave 艢腻苍迟腻 in marriage to 峁氠梗ya峁ａ箾峁単a a hermit. (See under 峁氠梗测补艣峁涐箙驳补).

As 碍补耻蝉补濒测腻 was childless 顿补艣补谤补迟丑补 brought as his wife 碍补颈办别测墨 the daughter of the King of Kekaya and sister of 驰耻诲丑腻箩颈迟. Still no children were born to them. He was much disappointed. At last he married again and brought 厂耻尘颈迟谤腻 the princess of 碍腻艣颈. Of these three, 碍补耻蝉补濒测腻 was the chief wife.

Though he had three wives, 顿补艣补谤补迟丑补 still remained childless. The King and his queens spent their days in sorrow for a long time. The King remembered the curse he had incurred when he was young. The curse was that as they had died with sorrow at the death of their son 艢谤补惫补峁嘺, the same thing would happen to me. So he believed that sons would be born to him.

He performed several devotional acts to get children. Finally he gave up all kingly pleasures and began to lead an ascetic life. He built a temple for his own use and consecrated the idol of 惭补丑腻惫颈峁ａ箛耻 in it. Then entrusting the administration of the Kingdom to his ministers he and his wives engaged themselves in daily devotion and meditation in the temple. Then the King decided to perform the sacrifice of Putrak膩me峁ａ弓i (sacrifice for getting children) by the hermit 峁氠梗测补艣峁涐箙驳补 under the guidance of 痴补蝉颈峁ａ弓丑补. The King informed 峁氠梗测补艣峁涐箙驳补 of his decision. 峁氠梗测补艣峁涐箙驳补 could not refuse the King鈥檚 request as the king was his father-in-law. Moreover 尝辞尘补辫腻诲补 and 艢腻苍迟腻 also requested the hermit to comply with the desire of 顿补艣补谤补迟丑补. So 峁氠梗测补艣峁涐箙驳补 came to 础测辞诲丑测腻 and the sacrifice of Putrak膩me峁ａ弓i was begun. The air vibrated with the recitation of mantras (spells and incantations) and the Veda 厂奴办迟补蝉. The hermit uttered the divine spell of Putrak膩me峁ａ弓i and offered oblations in the sacrificial fire. Then a wonderful and luminous figure came out of the fire with a pot containing a pudding of ambrosia, and placed the pot before 峁氠梗ya峁ａ箾峁単a and then disappeared in the sacrificial fire. When the wonderful figure disappeared, 峁氠梗测补艣峁涐箙驳补 took the pot of pudding and gave it to 顿补艣补谤补迟丑补 with prayer and incantations. 顿补艣补谤补迟丑补 received the golden pot and in accordance with the instruction of the hermit, divided the pudding between his first wife 碍补耻艣补濒测腻 and second wife 碍补颈办别测墨, both of whom gave half of their share to 厂耻尘颈迟谤腻. Thus the three wives ate the divine pudding and by and by all of them became pregnant. 碍补耻艣补濒测腻 and 碍补颈办别测墨 gave birth to a son each and 厂耻尘颈迟谤腻 gave birth to two sons. The son of 碍补耻艣补濒测腻 was called 搁腻尘补, the son of 碍补颈办别测墨 was named Bharata and the sons of 厂耻尘颈迟谤腻 were called 尝补办峁�m补峁嘺 and 艢补迟谤耻驳丑苍补. (Ka峁僷a 搁腻尘腻测补峁嘺, 叠腻濒补 碍腻峁囜笉补).

The boon of 艢补苍颈 (Saturn).

Astronomers are of opinion that famine will occur in the world for the period of twelve years, when the planet 艢补苍颈 (Saturn) comes into the orbit of 搁辞丑颈峁嚹� (a star). But now the planet Saturn does not come into the orbit of the star 搁辞丑颈峁嚹�. There is a story in the Padma 笔耻谤腻峁嘺, which states that this happened so because of a boon 艢补苍颈 had given to 顿补艣补谤补迟丑补.

During the regime of 顿补艣补谤补迟丑补 the planet 艢补苍颈 approached the orbit of 搁辞丑颈峁嚹�. Experts in astronomy said that the earth would be ruined by famine etc. if 艢补苍颈 cleft the star 搁辞丑颈峁嚹�. Hearing this 顿补艣补谤补迟丑补 took his bow and arrows, got into his chariot, and started for the firmament. He travelled for one lac and a quarter of yojanas (leagues) and reached the hind part of 搁辞丑颈峁嚹�, which is beyond the sun. Adorned with golden garments and a golden crown studded with jewels, seated on a golden chariot decorated with precious stones, and a lofty flagpost and yoked with horses of the colour of swan, the king shone in the sky as a second sun. He drew the bow-string right upto his ear and placed in it the arrow of destruction. When the devas and the asuras saw the arrow of destruction they began to tremble with fear. 艢补苍颈 came to 顿补艣补谤补迟丑补 and fell before him and said that he would grant any boon to the King, and requested him to recall the arrow of destruction. 顿补艣补谤补迟丑补 told 艢补苍颈 that he only wanted 艢补苍颈 not to come to the orbit of 搁辞丑颈峁嚹�. 艢补苍颈 agreed. From that day onwards 艢补苍颈 has never entered the orbit of 搁辞丑颈峁嚹�. (Padma 笔耻谤腻峁嘺, Uttara K膩n岣峚, Chapter 34).

Death.

搁腻尘补 and 尝补办峁�m补峁嘺 with 厂墨迟腻 went to live in the forest. Sumantra who accompanied them up to the river Ganges, returned to the palace. By then 顿补艣补谤补迟丑补 had fallen down filled with grief. He had never recovered from that state of unconsciousness. At the time of his death Bharata and 艢补迟谤耻驳丑苍补 had been away in the kingdom of Kekaya and 搁腻尘补 and 尝补办峁�m补峁嘺 in the forest. Thus the curse he incurred in his younger days from the aged hermit, the father of 艢谤补惫补峁嘺, was fully realized.

顿补艣补谤补迟丑补 appears again.

搁腻惫补峁嘺 was killed in the battle. 厂墨迟腻 was tested in fire and found sinless. 搁腻尘补 accepted her, seeing that her conjugal fidelity was not marred. At this time 艢颈惫补 appeared before 搁腻尘补 in a divine aeroplane. 顿补艣补谤补迟丑补 was seated in that plane clad in pure garments. He took 搁腻尘补 and 尝补办峁�m补峁嘺 into his lap and embraced them. He blessed them and 厂墨迟腻 who was standing with folded hands. Then 顿补艣补谤补迟丑补 disappeared. (痴腻濒尘墨办颈 搁腻尘腻测补峁嘺, Yuddha 碍腻峁囜笉补, Sarga 122).

*) It is stated in 惭补丑腻产丑腻谤补迟补, Vana Parva, Chapter 274, Stanza 6 that 'Ilabil膩, was the name of the mother of 顿补艣补谤补迟丑补.

**) In 础驳苍颈辫耻谤腻峁嘺 Chapter 6, it is stated that the name of this hermit boy was 驰补箩帽补诲补迟迟补.
