Mbh.1.5.991 | And Pramati had a son named Ruru by Ghritachi the celestial dancer. |
Mbh.1.5.992 | And to Ruru also by his wife Pramadvara, was born a son, whose name was Sunaka. |
Mbh.1.8.1106 | And Pramati begot in the womb of Ghritachi a son called Ruru. |
Mbh.1.8.1107 | And Ruru begot on his wife Pramadvara a son called Sunaka. |
Mbh.1.8.1108 | And I shall relate to you in detail, O Brahmana, the entire history of Ruru of abundant energy. |
Mbh.1.8.1118 | And the pious Ruru having seen Pramadvara in the hermitage of Sthulakesa became one whose heart was pierced by the god of love. |
Mbh.1.8.1119 | And Ruru by means of his companions made his father Pramati, the son of Bhrigu, acquainted with his passion. |
Mbh.1.8.1121 | And her foster-father betrothed the virgin Pramadvara to Ruru, fixing the nuptials for the day when the star Varga-Daivata Purva-phalguni would be ascendant. |
Mbh.1.8.1130 | And Swastyatreya, Mahajana, Kushika, Sankhamekhala, Uddalaka, Katha, and Sweta of great renown, Bharadwaja, Kaunakutsya, Arshtishena, Gautama, Pramati, and Pramati's son Ruru, and other inhabitants of the forest, came there. |
Mbh.1.8.1132 | But Ruru, mortified beyond measure, retired from the scene |
Mbh.1.9.1134 | SECTION IX Pauloma Parva continued Sauti said, While those illustrious Brahmanas were sitting around the dead body of Pramadvara, Ruru, sorely afflicted, retired into a deep wood and wept aloud. |
Mbh.1.9.1141 | And while Ruru was indulging in these lamentations for the loss of his bride, a messenger from heaven came to him in the forest and addressed him thus, The words thou utterest, O Ruru, in thy affliction are certainly ineffectual. |
Mbh.1.9.1147 | And Ruru replied, O messenger of heaven! |
Mbh.1.9.1151 | And the celestial messenger said unto Ruru, Resign half of thy own life to thy bride, and then, O Ruru of the race of Bhrigu, thy Pramadvara shall rise from the ground' |
Mbh.1.9.1154 | Sauti said, Then the king of Gandharvas the father of Pramadvara and the celestial messenger, both of excellent qualities, went to the god Dharma the Judge of the dead and addressed him, saying, If it be thy will, O Dharmaraja, let the amiable Pramadvara, the betrothed wife of Ruru, now lying dead, rise up with a moiety of Ruru's life' |
Mbh.1.9.1155 | And Dharmaraja answered, O messenger of the gods, if it be thy wish, let Pramadvara, the betrothed wife of Ruru, rise up endued with a moiety of Ruru's life' |
Mbh.1.9.1157 | This bestowal by Ruru of a moiety of his own span of life to resuscitate his bride afterwards led, as it would be seen, to a curtailment of Ruru's life. |
Mbh.1.9.1160 | And Ruru having obtained such a wife, as is hard to be found, beautiful and bright as the filaments of the lotus, made a vow for the destruction of the serpent-race. |
Mbh.1.9.1162 | One day, O Brahmana, Ruru entered an extensive forest. |
Mbh.1.9.1164 | And Ruru thereupon lifted up in anger his staff, even like to the staff of Death, for the purpose of killing it. |
Mbh.1.9.1165 | Then the Dundubha, addressing Ruru, said, I have done thee no harm, O Brahmana! |
Mbh.1.10.1168 | SECTION X Pauloma Parva continued Sauti said, And Ruru, on hearing those words, replied, My wife, dear to me as life, was bit by a snake; upon which, I took, O snake, a dreadful vow, viz, that I would kill every snake that I might come across. |
Mbh.1.10.1173 | Sauti continued, And the Rishi Ruru hearing these words of the serpent, and seeing that it was bewildered with fear, albeit a snake of the Dundubha species, killed it not. |
Mbh.1.10.1174 | And Ruru, the possessor of the six attributes, comforting the snake addressed it, saying, Tell me fully, O snake, who art thou thus metamorphosed' |
Mbh.1.10.1175 | And the Dundubha replied, O Ruru! |
Mbh.1.10.1178 | And Ruru asked, O thou best of snakes, for what wast thou cursed by a Brahmana in wrath? |
Mbh.1.11.1192 | when Ruru the pure son of Pramati, will appear, thou shall be delivered from the curse the moment thou seest him. |
Mbh.1.11.1193 | Thou art the very Ruru and the son of Pramati. |
Mbh.1.11.1196 | He then addressed the following words to Ruru of incomparable power, O thou first of created beings, verily the highest virtue of man is sparing the life of others. |
Mbh.1.11.1204 | Listen, O Ruru, to the account of the destruction of snakes at the sacrifice of Janamejaya in days of yore, and the deliverance of the terrified reptiles by that best of Dwijas, Astika, profound in Vedic lore and might in spiritual energy |
Mbh.1.12.1206 | SECTION XII Pauloma Parva continued Sauti continued, Ruru then asked, O best of Dwijas, why was king Janamejaya bent upon destroying the serpents, |
Mbh.1.12.1209 | The Rishi replied, O Ruru, the important history of Astika you will learn from the lips of Brahmanas' |
Mbh.1.12.1211 | Sauti continued, Ruru ran about in search of the missing Rishi, and having failed to find him in all the woods, fell down on the ground, fatigued. |
Mbh.1.58.2861 | Indeed, the recitation of this history dispelleth all fear of snakes' Sauti continued, O Brahmanas, O foremost one of Bhrigu's race, as thy ancestor Pramati had cheerfully narrated unto his inquiring son Ruru, and as I had heard it, thus have I recited this blessed history, from the beginning, of the learned Astika. |
Mbh.1.75.4108 | SECTION LXXV Sambhava Parva continued Vaisampayana said, Hear now, as I recite the recorded genealogy, that is sacred and subservient to religion, profit and pleasure, of these royal sages, Daksha, the lord of creation, Manu, the son of Surya, Bharata, Ruru, Puru, and Ajamidha. |
Mbh.3.265.12918 | Besides these, Yudhishthira himself, the son of Kunti, will give thee porcine deer and Nanku deer, and does, and antelopes, and Sarabhas, and rabbits, and Ruru deer, and bears, and Samvara deer and gayals and many other animals, besides wild boars and buffaloes and other animals of the quadruped tribe' |
Mbh.7.89.3946 | Then that tiger among men, viz, the ruler of the Bhojas, coolly pierced that invincible and foremost descendant of Ruru with ten arrows winged with Kanka feathers. |
Mbh.7.98.4540 | Casting their eyes, from desire of slaughter, on Jayadratha who was not far off from them, the two heroes looked like two tigers waiting from desire of falling upon a Ruru deer. |
Mbh.8.82.5038 | Vrikodara also rushed impetuously against him, like a lion springing towards a large Ruru deer. |
Mbh.12.101.5657 | A large army, consisting of even brave soldiers, is like a large herd of Ruru deer |
Mbh.12.218.13312 | As the Ruru casting off its old horns or the snake casting off its slough goes on without attracting any notice, after the same manner a person that is unattached casts off all his sorrows. |
Mbh.13.30.3906 | Pramati begot upon the Apsara Ghritachi a son who was named Ruru. |
Mbh.13.30.3907 | Ruru begot a son upon his spouse Pramadvara. |
Mbh.13.88.8020 | With venison obtained from those deer that are called Prishata, they remain gratified for eight months, and with that obtained from the Ruru for nine months, and with the meat of the Gavaya for ten months. |
Mbh.13.93.8327 | Bharadwaja said, The horns of a Ruru, after their first appearance, begin to grow with the growth of the animal. |
