MAHABHARATA NOUN

See All Nouns, See All Categories

Mbh.1.57.2819 And Paravata, Parijata, Pandara, Harina, Krisa, Vihanga, Sarabha, Meda, Pramoda, Sauhatapana, these born in the race of Airavata fell into the fire.
Mbh.1.65.3277 The eldest of them all was Viprachitti of great fame Samvara, and Namuchi and Pauloman; Asiloman, and Kesi and Durjaya; Ayahsiras, Aswasiras, and the powerful Aswasanku; also Gaganamardhan, and Vegavat, and he called Ketumat; Swarbhanu, Aswa, Aswapati, Vrishaparvan, and then Ajaka; and Aswagriva, and Sukshama, and Tuhunda of great strength, Ekapada, and Ekachakra, Virupaksha, Mahodara, and Nichandra, and Nikumbha, Kupata, and then Kapata; Sarabha, and Sulabha, Surya, and then Chandramas; these in the race of Danu are stated to be well-known.
Mbh.1.67.3453 That great Asura known amongst the sons of Diti by the name of Sarabha became on earth the royal sage called Paurava.
Mbh.3.134.6818 Ashtavakra said, Eight are the bags containing a hundred fold; eight is the number of the legs of the Sarabha, which preyeth upon lions; eight Vasus, as we hear, are amongst the celestials; and eight are the angles of yupa stake, in all sacrificial rites
Mbh.5.50.2879 He also, O bull of Bharata race, Sarabha the brother of the king of the Chedis, who again is united with Karakarsa, with both these, the Pandavas will fight against you.
Mbh.7.1.25 Indeed, after the fall of that foremost one of Bharata's race, the Kuru host looked like the firmament divested of stars, or like the sky without the atmosphere, or like the earth with blasted crops, or like an oration disfigured by bad grammar or like the Asura host of old after Vali had been smitten down, or like a beautiful damsel deprived of husband or like a river whose waters have been dried up, or like a roe deprived of her mate and encompassed in the woods by wolves; or like a spacious mountain cave with its lion killed by a Sarabha
Mbh.7.23.1169 For terrifying the foe, we beheld that tall and fierce standard of Nakula, placed on his car bearing the device of a Sarabha with its back made of gold.
Mbh.7.124.6176 Indeed, like animals terrified in the forest at the roar of a Sarabha, those elephants all fled away, uttering frightful cries.
Mbh.7.154.8245 Unable to bear the slaughter of the mighty car-warrior Satachandra, Sakuni's brothers, viz, the heroic Gavaksha and Sarabha and Bibhu, and Subhaga, and Bhanudatta, those five mighty car-warriors, rushing towards Bhimasena, attacked him with their keen shafts.
Mbh.8.26.1100 SECTION Sanjaya said, Kripa, O king, resisted Dhrishtadyumna in battle, like a Sarabha in the forest resisting a proud lion.
Mbh.12.116.6564 Some time after one day, a slayer of all animals, possessed of great strength inspiring all creatures with fright, having eight legs and eyes on the forehead, viz, a Sarabha, came to that spot.
Mbh.12.116.6566 Seeing this, the sage transformed his lion into a Sarabha of great strength.
Mbh.12.116.6567 The wild Sarabha, beholding the Rishi's Sarabha before him to be fiercer and more powerful, quickly fled away, from that forest.
Mbh.12.116.6568 Having been thus transformed into a Sarabha by the sage, the animal lived happily by the side of his transformer.
Mbh.12.116.6569 All the animals then that dwelt in the vicinity became inspired with the fear of that Sarabha.
Mbh.12.116.6571 Filled with delight, the Sarabha continued every day to slay animals for his food.
Mbh.12.116.6573 One day that ungrateful beast who had first been a dog but who was now transformed into a Sarabha, eagerly thirsting for blood, wished to slay the sage.
Mbh.12.116.6580 From a mighty lion thou wert then transformed into a Sarabha.
Mbh.12.116.6584 After this, that mean and foolish animal of wicked soul, transformed into a Sarabha once more assumed, in consequence of the Rishi's curse, his own proper form of a dog
Mbh.12.118.6620 A Sarabha should occupy the position of a Sarabha; a lion should swell with the might of a lion; a tiger should be placed in the position of a tiger; and a leopard should be placed as a leopard.
