MAHABHARATA NOUN

See All Nouns, See All Categories

Mbh.1.74.3934 And the son that is so born unto persons cognisant of the Vedic Mantras rescueth the spirits of deceased ancestors.
Mbh.1.94.5194 It hath been heard by us that Vasishtha then installed the Bharata prince in the sovereignty of all the Kshatriyas on earth, making by virtue of his Mantras this descendant of Puru the veritable horns of the wild bull or the tusks of the wild elephants.
Mbh.2.11.438 The twenty tribes of the Gandharvas and Apsaras, as also their seven other tribes, and all the Lokapalas chief protectors of several regions, and Sukra, and Vrihaspati, and Vudha, and Angaraka Mangala, Sani, Rahu, and the other planets; the Mantras of the Sama Veda, the special Mantras of the same Veda; the rites of Harimat and Vasumat, the Adityas with Indra, the two Agnis mentioned by name viz Agnisoma and Indragni, the Marutas, Viswakarman, and the Vasus, O Bharata; the Pitris, and all kinds of sacrificial libations, the four Vedas.
Mbh.3.3.276 And obedient to their priest, the sons of Pritha, on auspicious lunar days and constellations and conjunctions, performed sacrifices according to the ordinance, the scriptures, and the Mantras.
Mbh.3.40.2151 Arjuna said, O illustrious god having the bull for thy sign, if thou wilt grant me my desire, I ask of thee, O lord that fierce celestial weapon wielded by thee and called Brahmasira, that weapon of terrific prowess which destroyeth, at the end of the Yuga the entire universe, that weapon by the help of which, O god of gods, I may under thy grace, obtain victory in the terrible conflict which shall take place between myself on one side, and Karna and Bhishma and Kripa and Drona on the other, that weapon by which I may consume in battle Danavas and Rakshasas and evil spirits and Pisachas and Gandharvas and Nagas, that weapon which when hurled with Mantras produceth darts by thousands and fierce-looking maces and arrows like snakes of virulent poison, and by means of which I may fight with Bhishma and Drona and Kripa and Karna of ever abusive tongue, O illustrious destroyer of the eyes of Bhaga, even this is my foremost desire, viz, that I may be able to fight with them and obtain success'
Mbh.3.41.2204 Vaisampayana continued, O Janamejaya, the son of Pritha then received from Yama that weapon duly, along with the Mantras and rite, and the mysteries of hurling and withdrawing it.
Mbh.3.83.4307 Without doubt, by vows, by investiture of the sacred, by fasts, by rites and by Mantras, one becometh a Brahmana.
Mbh.3.83.4308 O bull among men, it hath been seen, however, by learned persons of old that even one destitute of rites and Mantras, by only bathing in that tirtha becometh learned and endued with the merit of vows.
Mbh.3.91.4909 That fierce weapon, known by the name of Brahma-sira which arose after Amrita, and which Rudra had obtained by means of ascetic austerities, hath been acquired by Arjuna together with the Mantras for hurling and withdrawing it, and the rites of expiation and revival.
Mbh.3.95.5046 And so loud, indeed, was the sound of the Vedic Mantras that nothing else, O Bharata, could be heard there.
Mbh.3.199.10112 Markandeya said, By Japa and Mantras and Homa and the study of the Vedas, the Brahmanas construct a Vedic boat wherewith they save both others and themselves.
Mbh.3.243.12147 And Arjuna, observing that the chief of the Gandharvas was striking at him concealed from sight, attacked his assailant with celestial weapon inspired with proper Mantras.
Mbh.3.269.13102 Armed with celestial weapons undaunted by difficulties he achieved this difficult feat with arrows inspired with Mantras.
Mbh.3.280.13758 And the daughter of Janaka further told me as a token from her, that by thee, O tiger among men, a blade of grass inspired with Mantras and thus converted into a fatal weapon had once been shot at a crow while ye were on the breast of the mighty hill known by the name of Chitrakuta!
Mbh.3.291.14201 And that best of kings, daily offering ten thousand oblations to the fire, recited Mantras in honour of Savitri and ate temperately at the sixth hour.
Mbh.5.83.3979 The very fire, fed with Homa libations in accompaniment with Mantras, freed from smoke blazed up cheerfully, sending forth its flames towards the right.
Mbh.5.94.4395 And having cleansed himself by a bath, recited the sacred Mantras and poured libations of clarified butter on the sacrificial fire.
Mbh.5.99.4680 It is here that son of Aditi, the Horse-headed Vishnu, on the recurrence of every auspicious occasion, riseth, filling at such times the universe, otherwise called Suvarna with the sound of Vedic hymns and Mantras.
Mbh.5.113.5147 And having taken their seats, both of them took the cooked food the lady offered them, after having first dedicated it to the gods with Mantras.
Mbh.5.187.8406 The Mantras also for invoking excellent weapon suddenly came to my mind
Mbh.6.22.1005 And many priests, and regenerate Rishis and Siddhas, uttering hymns in his praise wished him, as they walked around, the destructions of his enemies, by the aid of Japas, and Mantras, efficacious drugs, and diverse propitiatory ceremonies.
Mbh.6.83.4353 On the other hand, O Bharata, that son of Vrishni's race applied with Mantras the Aindra weapon, which that illustrious hero of Madhu's race had obtained from Vijaya
Mbh.6.123.6812 Aiming then a blazing arrow, after having inspired it with Mantras and identified it with the Parjanya weapon, in the very sight of the entire army, the son of Pandu, viz, Partha, pierced the Earth a little to the south of where Bhishma lay.
Mbh.7.27.1406 Filled then with rage, he with Mantras, turned his hook into the Vaishnava weapon and hurled it at Arjuna's breast.
Mbh.7.79.3525 Beholding the manner of his seizing the handle of the bow and drawing the string and placing of his feet, and hearing also the Mantras uttered by Bhava, the son of Pandu, of inconceivable prowess, learnt everything duly.
Mbh.7.80.3545 Seated at his ease on a royal seat, attired in a thin cloth, the king bathed in several kinds of water fragrant with sandal-wood and purified with Mantras.
Mbh.7.80.3552 And having worshipped the fire with faggots of sacred wood and with libations of clarified butter sanctified with Mantras, he came out of the chamber.
Mbh.7.91.4163 Sanjaya said, Having said these words, Drona, that foremost of persons conversant with Brahma, touching water, and duly uttering certain Mantras, speedily tied that highly wonderful and bright armour on Duryodhana's body for the victory of thy son in that dreadful battle and causing by that act all persons there to be filled with amazement.
Mbh.12.19.840 The truth, however, that is in the Mantras, is duly known to me.
Mbh.12.164.9706 The Vaisya and the Sudra should conquer their difficulties by wealth; the Brahmana should do so by Mantras and homa.
Mbh.12.198.11954 Truth is Sacrifice, Penance, Vedas, the utterance of Samans, Mantras, and Saraswati.
Mbh.12.199.12102 The Sadhyas, the Viswas, the Mantras, diverse kinds of loud and sweet music, the Rivers, the Mountains, the Seas, the Sacred Waters, the Penances, the Ordinances about yoga, the Vedas, the Sounds that accompany the singing of the Samans, Saraswati, Narada, Parvata, Viswavasu, the Hahas, the Huhus, the Gandharva Chitrasena with all the members of his family, the Nagas, the Sadhyas, the Munis, the god of gods, viz, Prajapati, and the inconceivable and thousand-headed Vishnu himself, came there.
Mbh.12.200.12151 What are those fruits which are adored by eminent personages conversant with the science of Artha, with the Vedas, and with the Mantras, through sacrifices and plentiful gifts of kine?
Mbh.12.200.12186 Mantras applied duly, sacrifices, the presents called Dakshina, gift of food, and concentration of the mind for divine contemplation, these are the five acts that are said to be productive of fruits, there being none else.
Mbh.12.200.12189 The Vedas consist of Mantras.
Mbh.12.200.12190 The Mantras, therefore, have the same three attributes, since it is with Mantras that acts are to be accomplished.
Mbh.12.303.19088 The Soul regards himself as employed in the recitation of different kinds of hidden Mantras or as observing different vows and rules and diverse kinds of penances, and sacrifices of many kinds, and rites of diverse sorts.
Mbh.12.318.19812 Keeping before me those original Mantras and the goddess Saraswati I, then, O king, aided by the inspiration of Surya, set myself to compile the excellent Satapatha Brahmanas, and succeeded in achieving the task never before undertaken by any one else.
Mbh.12.342.22362 There occurs a declaration to the same effect in the Mantras of the Srutis.
Mbh.12.342.22436 Saying this, Trisiras began to recite mentally certain sacred Mantras of great efficacy.
Mbh.12.342.22437 By virtue of those Mantras he began to increase in energy.
Mbh.12.342.22467 The Mantras uttered by the great Rishis lost all efficacy.
Mbh.12.342.22494 While in the observance of that very austere vow, she invoked with the aid of proper Mantras the boon-giving goddess Upasruti.
Mbh.12.342.22593 Through virtue of the Mantras with which libations of clarified butter are poured on the sacred fire, I take and appropriate the principal share of the offerings made in sacrifices.
Mbh.12.342.22682 Meanwhile Nara, for the purpose of destroying Rudra, took up a blade of grass, and inspired it with Mantras.
Mbh.12.342.22688 The deity of fire ceased to accept libations of even the purest clarified butter duly poured in sacrifices with the aid of Vedic Mantras.
Mbh.12.344.22870 He employed his time in mentally reciting, with due observances, innumerable sacred Mantras that are approved by Narayana.
Mbh.12.345.22888 In consequence of this incident, the sons, who had thus to communicate the Mantras unto their sires, acquired the status of sires and the sire, for having obtained the Mantras from their sons, acquired the status of sons
Mbh.12.347.23102 Adopting a voice regulated by the rules of the science called Siksha, he began to utter loudly Vedic Mantras.
Mbh.12.357.23706 Arrived on the banks of the Gomati, they beheld that regenerate person seated in a secluded spot, abstaining from food of every kind, observant the while of excellent vows, and engaged in silently reciting certain Mantras.
Mbh.13.7.477 As Mantras applied with a desire to win victory, or the performance of the Shoma sacrifice made without proper gifts, or oblations poured on the fire without proper hymns, become useless and lead to evil consequences, even so sin and evil results flow from falsehood in speech.
Mbh.13.10.586 The asylum, in consequence of all this, resounded with the chanting of the Vedas and the sacred Mantras uttered by its inhabitants.
Mbh.13.14.932 Some of those ascetics subsisted upon air and some upon water, some were devoted to Japa or the silent recitation of sacred Mantras, and some were engaged in cleansing their souls by practising the virtues of compassion while some amongst them were Yogins devoted to the abstraction of Yoga-meditation.
Mbh.13.14.1046 Dwelling on the banks of rivers or in caves or on mountain-breasts, or in tirthas and other places of the kind, we pass our time in the practice of penances and the recitation of sacred Mantras, Siva being our highest refuge.
Mbh.13.14.1094 Adored with diverse hymns uttered with diverse kinds of voice and worshipped with diverse Mantras fraught with encomiums, he, that is sometimes called Sarva, is the Destroyer of all creatures in the universe, and it is upon him, again, that all creatures rest as on their common foundation.
Mbh.13.14.1115 He sometimes recites sacred Mantras and sometimes becomes the deity of those Mantras which are recited.
Mbh.13.14.1349 Sakra also did the same with the aid of those foremost of Vedic Mantras, viz, the Sata-Rudriam.
Mbh.13.14.1474 I shall give thee certain Mantras.
Mbh.13.17.1842 Thou art conversant with Mantras in the sense of knowledge being thy penance
Mbh.13.17.1956 Thou art Agni that drinks the libations of clarified butter poured in sacrifices with the aid of Mantras.
Mbh.13.17.2166 Thou art water and other liquids that are poured in sacrifices with the aid of Mantras.
Mbh.13.17.2492 Thou art the Pranava and other sacred Mantras that instil life into dead matter.
Mbh.13.17.2571 Thou art he who has three high Mantras
Mbh.13.18.2881 Vishnu said, O Great King, Aditya, Chandra, Wind, Fire, Heaven, Earth, the Vasus, the Viswedevas, Dhatri, Aryyaman, Sukra, Vrihaspati, the Rudras, the Saddhyas, Varuna, Brahma, Sakra, Maruts, the Upanishads that deal with knowledge of Brahman, Truth, the Vedas, the Sacrifices, Sacrificial Presents, Brahmanas reciting the Vedas, Soma, Sacrificer, the shares of the deities in sacrificial offerings or clarified butter poured in sacrifices, Raksha, Diksha, all kinds of restraints in the form of vows and fasts and rigid observances, Swaha, Vashat, the Brahmanas, the celestial cow, the foremost acts of righteousness, the wheel of Time, Strength, Fame, Self-restraint, the Steadiness of all persons endued with intelligence, all acts of goodness and the reverse, the seven Rishis, Understanding of the foremost order, all kinds of excellent touch, the success of all religious acts, the diverse tribes of the deities, those beings that drink heat, those that are drinkers of Soma, Clouds, Suyamas, Rishitas, all creatures having Mantras for their bodies, Abhasuras, those beings that live upon scents only, those that live upon vision only, those that restrain their speech, those that restrain their minds, those that are pure, those that are capable of assuming diverse forms through Yoga-puissance, those deities that live on touch as their food, those deities that subsist on vision and those that subsist upon the butter poured in sacrifices, those beings that are competent to create by fiats of their will the objects they require, they that are regarded as the foremost ones among the deities, and all the other deities, O descendant of Ajamila, the Suparnas, the Gandharvas, the Pisachas, the Danavas, Yakshas, the Charanas, the snakes, all that is gross and all that is exceedingly subtile, all that is soft and all that is not subtile, all sorrows and all joys, all sorrows that come after joy and all joy that comes after sorrow, the Sankhya philosophy, Yoga, and that which transcends objects which are regarded as foremost and very superior, all adorable things, all the deities, and all the protectors of the universe who entering into the physical forces sustain and uphold this ancient creation of that illustrious Deity, have sprung from that Creator of all creatures.
Mbh.13.23.3287 The food offered by the three regenerate classes in Sraddhas, in which Mantras are either not uttered or uttered incorrectly and in which the ordinances laid down in the scriptures are not complied with, if distributed to guests and other people, is appropriated by Rakshasas.
Mbh.13.23.3339 That person, belonging to any of the three higher orders, O Yudhishthira, who at Sraddhas and on other occasions distributes food with the aid of Mantras, unto such Brahmanas as do not study the Vedas and as are not observant of vows, or as have not purified their conduct, certainly incurs sin'
Mbh.13.26.3521 They then with cheerful souls waited upon the son of Ganga, even as Brahmanas versed in Mantras wait with reverence upon the rising Sun.
Mbh.13.26.3617 Those waters are, again, equal in point of sanctity to the butter that is poured with Mantras on the sacrificial fire.
Mbh.13.26.3624 She is endued with the splendour or puissance that belongs to the butter that is poured with Mantras on the sacrificial fire.
Mbh.13.28.3745 After a time measured by multiplying the period last named by three hundred, one takes birth in the race of a Brahmana that is given to the recitation of the Gayatri and other sacred Mantras.
Mbh.13.30.3904 Prakasa had a son named Vagindra who was the foremost of all silent reciters of sacred Mantras.
Mbh.13.44.4654 Upon the girl's kinsmen having expressed their consent, Mantras and Homa should be resorted to.
Mbh.13.44.4655 Such Mantras truly accomplish their purpose.
Mbh.13.44.4656 Mantras and Homa recited and performed in the case of a girl that has not been bestowed by her kinsmen, do not accomplish their purpose.
Mbh.13.44.4658 But the engagement that is entered into by the wedder and wedded, with the aid of Mantras, is very much more so for it is this engagement that really creates the relationship of husband and wife.
Mbh.13.44.4722 The Mantras in respect of marriage accomplish their object of bringing about the indissoluble union of marriage at the seventh step.
Mbh.13.51.5219 The sacred Mantras, Swaha and Vashat, are always established upon kine.
Mbh.13.54.5491 The king then beheld the Rishi at another part of those woods seated on a mat made of Kusa grass, and engaged in mentally reciting some high Mantras.
Mbh.13.57.5667 The Brahmana, who bathes every day and recites sacred Mantras in the twilights, becomes possessed of the status of Daksha himself.
Mbh.13.67.6374 Thou knowest for what reason those words were said, what those words were, and how they were said in course of the sacred Mantras, O thou of great intelligence.
Mbh.13.76.6934 The blessings also that are indicated by the Mantras will also be thine.
Mbh.13.76.6935 The Mantras contain these references to kine: Kine are endued with the elements of strength and energetic exertion.
