Mbh.1.63.3180 | And amongst those hundred and one, eleven, viz, Duhsasana, Duhsaha, Durmarshana, Vikarna, Chitrasena, Vivinsati, Jaya, Satyavrata, Purumitra, and Yuyutsu by a Vaisya wife, were all Maharathas great car-warriors. |
Mbh.1.67.3512 | And over and above these hundred, Dhritarashtra had one son named Yuyutsu born of a Vaisya wife' |
Mbh.1.67.3516 | And Yuyutsu who was Dhritarashtra's son by a Vaisya wife, was also over and above the hundred. |
Mbh.1.115.6221 | SECTION CXV Sambhava Parva continued Vaisampayana said, Meanwhile, O Janamejaya, Dhritarashtra begat upon Gandhari a hundred sons, and upon a Vaisya wife another besides those hundred. |
Mbh.1.115.6225 | How did Dhritarashtra also beget another son in a Vaisya wife? |
Mbh.1.115.6270 | And during the time when Gandhari was in a state of advanced pregnancy, there was a maid servant of the Vaisya class who used to attend on Dhritarashtra. |
Mbh.1.115.6272 | And because he was begotten by a Kshatriya upon a Vaisya woman, he came to be called Karna. |
Mbh.1.115.6273 | Thus were born unto the wise Dhritarashtra a hundred sons who were all heroes and mighty chariot-fighters, and a daughter over and above the hundred, and another son Yuyutsu of great energy and prowess begotten upon a Vaisya woman |
Mbh.1.116.6276 | Thou hast merely said that over and above the hundred sons, there was another son named Yuyutsu begotten upon a Vaisya woman, and a daughter. |
Mbh.1.129.6957 | But Yuyutsu Dhritarashtra's son by a Vaisya wife, moved by his friendship for the Pandavas, informed them of this. |
Mbh.1.164.8517 | A Kshatriya rendering help unto a Vaisya also on this earth certainly acquires world-wide popularity. |
Mbh.1.172.8806 | The hand of the Brahmana with which he poureth libations on the sacrificial fire, the chariot upon which the Kshatriya fighteth, the charity of the Vaisya, and the service of the Sudra rendered unto the three other classes, are all fragments of the thunderbolt. |
Mbh.1.193.9639 | Hath any Sudra or anybody of mean descent, or hath a tribute-paying Vaisya by taking my daughter away, placed his dirty foot on my head? |
Mbh.2.69.3049 | O king of kings, it hath been said that a Vaisya may ask one boon; a Kshatriya lady, two boons; a Kshatriya male, three, and a Brahmana, a hundred. |
Mbh.2.72.3133 | Vaisampayana continued, Then Drona, Somadatta and Valhika, Gautama, Vidura, the son of Drona, and the mighty son of Dhritarashtra by his Vaisya wife, Bhurisravas, and Bhishma, and that mighty warrior Vikarna, all said, Let not the play commence. |
Mbh.3.85.4714 | By reading this narrative the sonless obtains sons, the destitute obtains riches, a person of the royal order conquereth the whole earth, the Vaisya cometh by wealth, the Sudra obtaineth all his desires, and the Brahmana crosseth the ocean of the world. |
Mbh.3.149.7657 | To rule the subjects is the duty of the Kshatriya; and to tend cattle, that of the Vaisya, while to serve the twice-born orders is said to be the duty of the Sudra. |
Mbh.3.211.10884 | A man, O Brahmana, may be born in the Sudra caste, but if he is possessed of good qualities, he may attain the state of Vaisya and similarly that of a Kshatriya, and if he is steadfast in rectitude, he may even become a Brahmana. |
Mbh.4.10.386 | Having come before the king that afflicter of foes, Sahadeva answered in accents deep as the roar of the cloud, I am a Vaisya, Arishtanemi by name. |
Mbh.4.10.393 | The office of a Vaisya is not fit for thee. |
Mbh.4.50.1923 | And of Vaisya, having earned wealth, should cause the rites enjoined in the Vedas to be performed for himself. |
Mbh.5.23.996 | I hope Yuyutsu, the highly intelligent son of Dhritarashtra by his Vaisya wife is in health. |
Mbh.5.29.1243 | A Vaisya should study and diligently earn and accumulate wealth by means of commerce, agriculture, and the tending of cattle. |
Mbh.5.30.1352 | Thou must, O sire, also enquire about the welfare of Dhritarashtra's son by his Vaisya wife, that youth who is one of the best of the Kuru race, who never falls into error, who possesseth vast wisdom, who is endued with every virtue, and who never cherishes a liking for this war! |
Mbh.5.40.2209 | Having studied the Vedas, and distributed in proper time, his wealth among Brahmanas, Kshatriyas, and his own dependents, and inhaled the sanctified smoke of the three kinds of fires, the Vaisya enjoyeth heavenly bliss in the other world. |
Mbh.5.72.3594 | A Sudra serveth; a Vaisya liveth by trade; the Brahmana have choosen the wooden bowl for begging, while we are to live by slaughter! |
Mbh.5.96.4534 | And that mighty car-warrior, rising every morning after the night had passed away, called the Brahmanas and the Kshatriyas unto himself and asked them, saying, Be he a Sudra, a Vaisya, a Kshatriya, or a Brahmana, is there any one who is superior or even equal to me in battle' |
Mbh.5.132.5899 | A Brahmana should adopt mendicancy; a Kshatriya should protect subjects; a Vaisya should earn wealth; and a Sudra should serve the other three. |
Mbh.5.180.8063 | This also was, O great Muni, the vow then made by thee, O Rama, the vow made by thee before Brahmanas after thou hadst conquered all the Kshatriyas, viz, that thou wouldst slay in battle the person, be he a Brahmana, a Kshatriya, a Vaisya, or a Sudra, who would be a foe to the Brahmanas. |
Mbh.6.9.507 | These countries are, besides, the abodes of many Kshatriya, Vaisya, and Sudra tribes. |
Mbh.6.11.600 | The Manasas, O king, live by following the duties of the Vaisya order. |
Mbh.7.70.3061 | Rebuking them in these words, the high-souled son of Dhritarashtra by his Vaisya wife, went away, casting off his weapons afflicted with rage and grief. |
Mbh.9.27.1919 | The mighty-armed Pandava embraced that child of a Vaisya mother and dismissed him affectionately. |
Mbh.9.27.1934 | Hearing these words spoken by the son of Dhritarashtra's Vaisya wife, Vidura of immeasurable soul, conversant with every usage and feeling that was proper at that hour, applauded the eloquent Yuyutsu. |
Mbh.12.35.1877 | So, a Vaisya should acquire a measure less than a Kshatriya's by a fourth and a Sudra less than a Vaisya's by a fourth. |
Mbh.12.59.3318 | I shall now tell thee, O Yudhishthira, what the eternal duties of the Vaisya are. |
Mbh.12.59.3319 | A Vaisya should make gifts, study the Vedas, perform sacrifices, and acquire wealth by fair means. |
Mbh.12.59.3323 | The Creator, having created the domestic animals, bestowed their care upon the Vaisya. |
Mbh.12.59.3331 | A Vaisya should never desire that he should not tend cattle. |
Mbh.12.59.3332 | If a Vaisya desires to tend cattle, no one else should be employed in that task. |
Mbh.12.62.3462 | For a Sudra practising all these duties as also for a Vaisya, O king, and a Kshatriya, the Bhikshu mode of life has been laid down. |
Mbh.12.62.3463 | Having discharged the duties of his order, and having also served the kin, a Vaisya of venerable years, with the king's permission, may betake himself to another mode of life. |
Mbh.12.71.4030 | The Kshatriya has sprung from his two arms, and the Vaisya from his two thighs. |
Mbh.12.71.4034 | The Vaisya was created for supporting the two other orders and himself by cultivation and trade, and finally, it was ordained by Brahman that the Sudra should serve the three orders as a menial' |
Mbh.12.77.4332 | Bhishma said, When a Brahmana loses his means of support and falls into distress, he may certainly betake himself to the practices of a Vaisya and derive his support by agriculture and keeping cattle, if, of course, he is incompetent for Kshatriya duties' |
Mbh.12.77.4333 | Yudhishthira said, If a Brahmana, O bull of Bharata's race, betakes himself to the duties of a Vaisya, what articles may he sell without losing his prospect of heaven' |
Mbh.12.77.4384 | Yudhishthira said, If when robbers raise their heads and an inter-mixture of the orders begins to take place in consequence of confusion, and Kshatriyas become incompetent, some powerful person other than a Kshatriya seeks to subdue those robbers for the sake of protecting the people indeed, O best of kings, if that powerful person happens to be a Brahmana or a Vaisya or a Sudra, and if he succeeds in protecting the people by righteously wielding the rod of chastisement is he justified in doing what he does or is he restrained by the ordinances from accomplishing that duty? |
Mbh.12.90.5092 | Menial service attaches to the Sudra; agriculture to the Vaisya; the science of chastisement to the Kshatriya, and Brahmacharya, penances, mantras, and truth, attach, to the Brahmana. |
Mbh.12.129.7338 | For a Kshatriya that has, in consequence of the weakness of his treasury and army, become exceedingly humiliated, neither a life of mendicancy nor the profession of a Vaisya or that of a Sudra has been laid down. |
Mbh.12.164.9684 | If not withstanding the presence of a virtuous king on the throne, the sacrifice begun by anybody, especially by a Brahmana, cannot be completed for want of only a fourth part of the estimated expenses, then the king should, for the completion of that sacrifice, take away from his kinsmen the wealth of a Vaisya that is possessed of a large flock of cattle but that is averse from sacrifices and abstains from quaffing Soma. |
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.12.164.9717 | That Brahmana who summons to his bed an unmarried maiden, or suffers a Sudra, thinking him worthy of respect, to sit upon the same carpet with him, should sit on a bed of dry grass behind some Kshatriya or Vaisya and give him respect in that fashion |
Mbh.12.164.9720 | The sin that a Brahmana commits in a single night by respectfully serving a member of a lower order or by sporting with him in the same spot or on the same bed, is cleansed by observing the practice of sitting behind a Kshatriya or a Vaisya on a bed of dry grass for three continuous years. |
Mbh.12.164.9728 | For the benefit of Brahmanas and kine, and on occasions of transfusion of castes, even a Vaisya may take up weapons for his own safety. |
Mbh.12.164.9765 | Having slain a Vaisya one should perform such a sacrifice for two years and make a present of a hundred kine with one bull. |
Mbh.12.179.10783 | Once on a time a prosperous Vaisya, in the enjoyment of prosperity, and proud of his affluence, threw down, by negligently driving his car, a Rishi's son of rigid vows named Kasyapa, devoted to penances. |
Mbh.12.188.11274 | O best of regenerate ones, by what acts again does one become a Vaisya or a Sudra? |
Mbh.12.188.11279 | He who earns fame from keep of cattle, who is employed in agriculture and the means of acquiring wealth, who is pure in behaviour and attends to the study of the Vedas, is called a Vaisya |
Mbh.12.209.12680 | One who is a Vaisya should hear it from Vaisyas, and a high-souled Sudra should hear it from Sudras. |
Mbh.12.261.15805 | Bhishma continued, Thus addressed by that Brahmana possessed of I great fame, Tuladhara of the Vaisya order, well-acquainted with the truths touching the interpretations of morality and contented with knowledge, discoursed to Jajali who had undergone severe penances, upon the ways of morality |
Mbh.12.290.18240 | A Kshatriya bereft of courage, a Brahmana that takes every kind of food, a Vaisya unendued with exertion in respect of agriculture and other moneymaking pursuits, a Sudra that is idle and, therefore, averse to labour, a learned person without good behaviour, one of high birth but destitute of righteous conduct, a Brahmana fallen away from truth, a woman that is unchaste and wicked, a Yogin endued with attachments, one that cooks food for one's own self, an ignorant person employed in making a discourse, a kingdom without a king and a king that cherishes no affection for his subjects and who is destitute of Yoga, these all, O king, are deserving of pity |
Mbh.12.293.18334 | Worshipping that deity, the Vaisya employs himself, for the means of his support, in agriculture and the rearing of cattle. |
Mbh.12.293.18342 | Similarly, the Brahmana that is employed in studying the scriptures, the Vaisya that is engaged in earning wealth, and the Sudra that is always engaged in serving the three other classes with concentrated attention, become objects of respect. |
Mbh.12.293.18352 | The Brahmana shines by self restraint; the Kshatriya by victory; the Vaisya by wealth; while the Sudra always shines in glory through cleverness in serving the three other orders |
Mbh.12.294.18353 | SECTION CCXCV Parasara said, In the Brahmana, wealth acquired by acceptance of gifts, in the Kshatriya that won by victory in battle, in the Vaisya that obtained by following the duties laid down for his order, and in the Sudra that earned by serving the three other orders, however small its measure, is worthy of praise, and spent for the acquisition of virtue is productive of great benefits. |
Mbh.12.294.18355 | If the Brahmana, pressed for a living, betakes himself to the duties of either the Kshatriya or the Vaisya, he does not fall off from righteousness. |
Mbh.12.318.19931 | Obtaining knowledge from a Brahmana or a Kshatriya or Vaisya or even a Sudra who is of low birth, one endued with faith should always show reverence for such knowledge. |
Mbh.12.318.19939 | From the mouth of Brahma sprung the Brahmanas; from his arms, sprung the Kshatriyas; from his navel, the Vaisya; and from his feet, the Sudras. |
Mbh.12.320.20341 | Nor am I a Vaisya, nor a Sudra. |
Mbh.12.340.22207 | A Vaisya, by doing it, makes considerable profits, and a Sudra attains to great felicity. |
Mbh.13.6.392 | The Brahmana attains to prosperity by holy living, the Kshatriya by prowess, the Vaisya by manly exertion, and the Sudra by service. |
Mbh.13.17.1865 | Thou art he that took the shape of a jackal for consoling the Brahmana who, when insulted by a wealthy Vaisya, had resolved to commit suicide. |
Mbh.13.18.2887 | By reciting this hymn the Brahmana succeeds in acquiring all the Vedas; the Kshatriya becomes crowned with victory, O son of Pritha; the Vaisya becomes successful in obtaining wealth and cleverness; and the Sudra, in winning happiness here and a good end hereafter. |
Mbh.13.23.3318 | Upon the completion of a Sraddha performed by a Vaisya, O Bharata, the words that should be uttered are, Let everything become inexhaustible, |
Mbh.13.23.3321 | In the rites performed by a Vaisya, the words that should be uttered, instead of beings the syllable Om, are, Let the deities be gratified, |
Mbh.13.23.3332 | A Kshatriya incurs four times and a Vaisya eight times the sin that a Brahmana incurs by uttering a falsehood. |
Mbh.13.23.3335 | So also, if he eats elsewhere after having been invited by a person of the royal order or a Vaisya, he falls away from his position and incurs half the sin that attaches to the slaughter of an animal on occasions other than those of sacrifices. |
Mbh.13.27.3662 | O best of kings, how may one, if he happens to be a Kshatriya or a Vaisya or a Sudra, succeed in acquiring the status of a Brahmana? |
Mbh.13.28.3737 | After thirty thousand years one acquire the status of a Vaisya. |
Mbh.13.40.4389 | Sometimes he shows himself as young and sometimes as old Sometimes he appears as a Brahmana, sometimes as a Kshatriya, sometimes as a Vaisya, and sometimes as a Sudra. |
Mbh.13.44.4626 | As regards the Vaisya, he should take a wife from only his own order. |
Mbh.13.47.4817 | It has been laid down, O grandsire, that a Brahmana can take four wives, viz, one that belongs to his own order, one that is a Kshatriya, one that is a Vaisya, and one that is a Sudra, if the Brahmana wishes to indulge in the desire of sexual intercourse. |
Mbh.13.47.4821 | Bhishma said, The Brahmana, the Kshatriya, and the Vaisya are regarded as the three regenerate orders. |
Mbh.13.47.4834 | The son that has been born of the wife belonging to the third order, viz, the woman of the Vaisya caste, by the Brahmana sire, shall take, O Yudhishthira, two of the three remaining shares of the father's property. |
Mbh.13.47.4863 | One born of a Kshatriya wife or of a Vaisya wife, by a Brahmana husband, is similarly invested with the status of a Brahmana. |
Mbh.13.47.4883 | Similarly, the Vaisya cannot be regarded as the equal of the Kshatriya in point of birth. |
Mbh.13.47.4896 | Hence, the son of the Kshatriya wife shall, without doubt, be held to be superior to him that is born of the Vaisya wife. |
Mbh.13.47.4897 | The son of the Kshatriya wife, for this, takes a larger share of the paternal property than the son of the Vaisya mother' |
Mbh.13.47.4906 | The son of the Vaisya wife shall take three of such shares. |
Mbh.13.47.4909 | For the Vaisya only one wife has been ordained. |
Mbh.13.47.4912 | If a Vaisya has two wives, one of whom is a Vaisya and the other a Sudra, there is a difference between them in respect of status. |
Mbh.13.47.4913 | The wealth of a Vaisya, O chief of Bharata's race, should be divided Into five portions. |
Mbh.13.47.4914 | I shall now speak of the sons of a Vaisya by a wife of his own order and by one belonging to the inferior order, as also of the manner in which, O king his wealth is to be distributed among those children. |
Mbh.13.47.4915 | The son born of the Vaisya wife shall take four of such shares of his father's wealth. |
Mbh.13.48.4937 | Those sons, however, that are begotten by him on the two spouses that belong to the next two orders viz, Vaisya and Sudra, are inferior, their status being determined not by that of their father but by that of their mothers. |
Mbh.13.48.4947 | The Vaisya may take two spouses. |
Mbh.13.48.4954 | The son begotten by a Vaisya upon a woman of the Brahmana order comes to be regarded as a Vaidehaka. |
Mbh.13.48.4961 | The son begotten by a Vaisya upon a Kshatriya woman becomes a Vandi or Magadha. |
Mbh.13.48.4964 | If a Sudra happens to have intercourse with a Vaisya woman, the son begotten upon her comes to be called Ayogava. |
Mbh.13.49.5064 | Bhishma said, The sons that a Brahmana begets upon spouses taken from the three inferior orders, those begotten by a Kshatriya upon spouses taken from the two orders inferior to his own, O Bharata, and the sons that a Vaisya begets upon a spouse taken from the one order that is inferior to his, are all called Apadhwansajas. |
Mbh.13.49.5069 | He who is born of a Vaisya woman by a Sudra father is called a Vaidya. |
Mbh.13.49.5071 | The Vaisya, by uniting himself with a woman of the Brahmana order, begets a son that is called a Magadha, while the son that he gets upon a Kshatriya woman is called a Vamaka. |
Mbh.13.59.5826 | The Vaisya in a similar manner used in those days to worship the royal order, and the Sudra to worship the Vaisya. |
Mbh.13.59.5830 | It was only the Kshatriya and the Vaisya who could serve the Brahmana by touching his person or approaching his presence. |
Mbh.13.73.6763 | If a Vaisya, possessed of similar accomplishments, were to make a gift of a single cow, that cow would be equal to five hundred kine in respect of the merit she would produce If a Sudra endued with humility were to make a gift of a cow, such a cow would be equal to a hundred and twenty-five kine in respect of the merit it would produce Devoted to penances and truth, proficient in the scriptures and all acts through dutiful services rendered to his preceptor, endued with forgiveness of disposition, engaged in the worship of the deities, possessed of a tranquil soul, pure in body and mind, enlightened, observant of all duties, and freed from every kind of egotism, that man who makes a gift of a cow unto a Brahmana, certainly attains to great merit through that act of his, viz, the gift, according to proper rites, of a cow yielding copious milk. |
Mbh.13.73.6775 | A Vaisya, by such conduct, acquires only half the merit of a Kshatriya, and a Sudra, by such conduct, earns half the merit that a Vaisya does. |
Mbh.13.75.6871 | The Vaisya, who, observant of the duties of his order, makes gifts, reaps as the fruit of those gifts, a crowning reward. |
Mbh.13.112.10175 | That Vaisya who divides the produce of his fields into six equal shares and makes a gift of one of those shares unto Brahmanas, succeeds by such conduct in cleansing himself from every sin. |
Mbh.13.118.10529 | He had, before becoming a Kshatriya, to pass through diverse orders of being, such as hedgehog and Iguana and boar and deer and bird, and Chandala and Sudra and Vaisya. |
Mbh.13.118.10552 | The Sudra rises to the status of the Vaisya; and the Vaisya to that of the Kshatriya. |
Mbh.13.135.11279 | From whom may a Kshatriya, a Vaisya, and a Sudra take their food respectively' |
Mbh.13.135.11280 | Bhishma said, A Brahmana may take his food from another Brahmana or from a Kshatriya or a Vaisya, but he must never accept food from a Sudra. |
Mbh.13.135.11281 | A Kshatriya may take his food from a Brahmana, a Kshatriya or a Vaisya. |
Mbh.13.135.11288 | A Brahmana, a Kshatriya, or a Vaisya, so engaging, is doomed, although devoted to the due performance of religious rites. |
Mbh.13.135.11290 | A Vaisya lives by distributing the fruits of his own acts and agriculture. |
Mbh.13.135.11291 | The breeding of kine and trade are the legitimate work in which a Vaisya may engage without fear of censure. |
Mbh.13.136.11331 | By eating with a Sudra from off the same plate the Sudra loses his family respectability; the Vaisya by eating from off the same plate with a Vaisya, loses his cattle and friends. |
Mbh.13.141.11617 | What are the indications of those duties that appertain to the Vaisya? |
Mbh.13.141.11668 | The duties of the Vaisya always consist of the keeping of cattle and agriculture, the pouring of libations on the sacred fire, the making of gifts, and study. |
Mbh.13.141.11669 | Trade, walking in the path of righteousness, hospitality, peacefulness, self-restraint, welcoming of Brahmanas, and renouncing things in favour of Brahmanas, are the other eternal duties of the Vaisya. |
Mbh.13.141.11670 | The Vaisya, engaged in trade and walking in the path of righteousness, should never sell sesame and perfumery and juices or liquid substances. |
Mbh.13.143.11882 | Through the evil consequence of what acts cloth a Vaisya become a Sudra? |
Mbh.13.143.11883 | Through what acts doth a Kshatriya become a Vaisya and a regenerate person Brahmana becomes a Kshatriya? |
Mbh.13.143.11891 | After the same manner the Kshatriya, the Vaisya, and the Sudra, all become so through original creation. |
Mbh.13.143.11895 | If one, who is a Kshatriya or Vaisya, lives in the practice of those duties that are assigned to the Brahmana, after the manner of a Brahmana he becomes in his next life a Brahmana. |
Mbh.13.143.11897 | That Brahmana of little understanding, who, impelled by cupidity and folly, follows the practices assigned to Vaisyas forgetful of his status as a Brahmana that is exceedingly difficult to attain, comes to be regarded as one that has become a Vaisya. |
Mbh.13.143.11898 | Similarly, one that is a Vaisya by birth may, by following the practices of a Sudra, become a Sudra. |
Mbh.13.143.11900 | A highly blessed Kshatriya or a Vaisya, that abandons those practices of his that are consistent with the duties laid down for his order, and follows the practices laid down for the Sudra, falls away from his own order and becomes a person of mixed caste. |
Mbh.13.143.11902 | or a Kshatriya, or a Vaisya, sinks into the status of a Sudra. |
Mbh.13.143.11921 | By these good acts, again, O goddess, when performed, a Sudra becomes a Brahmana, and a Vaisya becomes a Kshatriya. |
Mbh.13.143.11930 | If, indeed, the Sudra desires to be a Vaisya in his next life, he should also abstain from meat of animals not slain in sacrifices. |
Mbh.13.143.11931 | If a Vaisya wishes to be a Brahmana in his next life, he should observe even these duties. |
Mbh.13.143.11943 | Such a Vaisya of pure conduct takes birth in his next life in a high Kshatriya family |
Mbh.13.143.11944 | If a Vaisya, after having taken birth as a Kshatriya, goes through the usual purificatory rites, becomes invested with the sacred thread, and betakes himself to the observance of vows, he becomes, in his next life, an honoured Brahmana. |
Mbh.13.149.12542 | A Vaisya, by doing it, becomes possessed of affluence, while a Sudra earns great happiness. |
Mbh.14.71.3126 | Those foremost ones of Bharata's race, O chief of kings, then paid their respectful salutations to Gandhari, the daughter of Suvala and to Kunti, They next worshipped their uncle Vidura and met Yuyutsu, the son of Dhritarashtra by his Vaisya wife. |
Mbh.15.1.10 | Vidura, and Sanjaya and Yuyutsu of great intelligence, who was Dhritarashtra's son by his Vaisya wife, used to wait upon Dhritarashtra. |
Mbh.15.15.638 | Vrikodara, the heroic Phalguna, the two sons of Madri, Vidura, Sanjaya, Dhritarashtra's son by his Vaisya wife, and Kripa, and Dhaumya, and other Brahmanas, all followed the old monarch, with voices choked in grief. |
Mbh.17.1.13 | Yudhishthira made over the kingdom to the son of his uncle by his Vaisya wife. |
