Who was Babruvahana in Mahabharata? What’s his story?

Babruvahana (Sanskrit: рдмрдмреНрд░реБрд╡рд╛рд╣рди) was the son of Arjuna, a Pandava prince, and Chitrangada, the princess of Manipur. Babruvahana was adopted as the heir of Manipur by his maternal grandfather and later reigned at the kingdom.

Babruvahan is the son of Arjuna and Chitrangadha.

Chitrangadha raises Brabruvahana. He is a great warrior.

After Kurukshetra Arjun on his way tries to drink water from river Ganga. Sons of Ganga (Vasus) and brothers of Bheeshma stop Arjun and accuses him for killing of Bheeshma by unfair means. They ask Arjun not to drink water from the river who is the mother of Bheesham. Arjun tries to pacify them and says no one can claim rights on a river and tries to drink water. Vasus take out weapons to fight Arjuna and Arjun uses a single arrow and the hands of Vasus get tied. Arjun then drinks water and leaves.

Ganga founds her sons with their hands tied. When she finds Arjuna is the reason, she gets angry. She feels Arjun calls for no mercy and intends to teach him a lesson. Her anger turns into an arrow and that arrow reaches the quiver of Babruvahan who is meditating upon Devi Maa for becoming powerful.

During ashwameda Babruvahan fights with Arjun. And as a last weapon Babruvahan uses the arrow (given by Ganga) and the arrow cuts off ArjunтАЩs head. Later Sri Krishna uses mani to make Arjuna alive.

LEARN Sanskrit- Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam is a Sanskrit phrase found in Hindu texts such as the Maha Upanishad, which means ” the world is one family”.
