Mbh.13.157.13046 | The gods said, O thou that art adored by all creatures of the universe, the earth has been taken away from us by Chyavana, while we have been deprived of heaven by the Kapas, O puissant one' |
Mbh.13.157.13051 | Thus asked, the deities said unto them, Do ye subjugate the Kapas' |
Mbh.13.157.13053 | After this, the Brahmanas commenced a rite having for its object the destruction of the Kapas. |
Mbh.13.157.13054 | As soon as this was heard of by the Kapas, they immediately despatched a messenger of theirs, named Dhanin, unto those Brahmanas. |
Mbh.13.157.13055 | Dhanin, coming to them as they sat on the earth, thus delivered to them the message of the Kapas. |
Mbh.13.157.13056 | The Kapas are even like you all! |
Mbh.13.157.13073 | When the Kapas have these and many other virtues and accomplishments, why, indeed, would you seek to subjugate them? |
Mbh.13.157.13076 | The Brahmanas said, Oh, we shall subjugate the Kapas! |
Mbh.13.157.13078 | Hence, the Kapas deserve slaughter at your hands. |
Mbh.13.157.13080 | After this, Dhanin, returning to the Kapas, said unto them, The Brahmanas are not disposed to do you any good! |
Mbh.13.157.13081 | Hearing this, all the Kapas took up their weapons and proceeded towards the Brahmanas. |
Mbh.13.157.13082 | The Brahmanas, beholding the Kapas advancing against them with the standards of their cars upraised, forthwith created certain blazing fires for the destruction of the Kapas. |
Mbh.13.157.13083 | Those eternal fires, created with the aid of Vedic Mantras, having effected the destruction of the Kapas, began to shine in the firmament like so many golden clouds. |
Mbh.13.157.13086 | Then Narada of great energy, coming there, O king, informed the deities how their foes; the Kapas, had been really slain by the Brahmanas of mighty energy and not by deities themselves. |
