Mbh.7.96.4400 | SECTION XCVIII Sanjaya said, When the sun turned in his downward course towards the summit of the Asta hills, when the welkin was covered with dust, when the heat of the solar rays abated, the day began to fade fast. |
Mbh.7.131.6557 | Striking against the earth, those arrows looked resplendent, like the blazing rays of the sun while proceeding towards the Asta hills. |

Mbh.8.18.751 | Cut off with a crescent-shaped arrow by the diadem-decked Partha, the head also of Danda fell down on the Earth from the elephant's back, and covered with blood it looked resplendent as it lay like the sun dropped from the Asta mountain towards the western quarter. |
Mbh.8.34.1651 | Himavat and Vindhya mountains became its Apaskara and Adhishthana; and the Udaya and the Asta mountains were made the wheels of that car by those foremost ones among the gods. |
