MAHABHARATA NOUN

See All Nouns, See All Categories

Mbh.4.11.423 Know me, O king of men, to be Vrihannala, a son or daughter without father or mother'
Mbh.4.11.424 Virata said, O Vrihannala, I give thee what thou desirest.
Mbh.4.11.429 Vaisampayana continued, The king of the Matsyas then tested Vrihannala in dancing, music, and other fine arts, and consulting with his various ministers forthwith caused him to be examined by women.
Mbh.4.24.1094 Sairindhri replied, O blessed Vrihannala, always passing thy days happily in the apartments of the girls, what concern hast thou with Sairindhri's fate to say?
Mbh.4.24.1097 Thereat Vrihannala said, O blessed one, Vrihannala also hath unparalleled sorrows of her own.
Mbh.4.36.1455 And the hero said, Do thou, O beauteous one, at my request say unto Uttara without delay, This Vrihannala was formerly the accomplished resolute charioteer of Pandu's son Arjuna.
Mbh.4.36.1458 And bashfully stepping out from among the women, the poor princess of Panchala gently spake unto him these words, The handsome youth, looking like a mighty elephant and known by the name of Vrihannala, was formerly the charioteer of Arjuna.
Mbh.4.36.1464 Thou knowest, what this one of the neuter sex may or may not be, I cannot, however, O blessed one, myself request Vrihannala to hold the reins of my horses'
Mbh.4.36.1465 Draupadi said, Vrihannala, O hero, will without doubt, obey the words of thy younger sister, that damsel of graceful hips.
Mbh.4.36.1467 Thus addressed by the Sairindhri, Uttara spake unto his sister, Go thyself, O thou of faultless beauty, and bring Vrihannala hither'
Mbh.4.37.1477 And having approached that bull among men, the princess, standing in the midst of her female attendants, the displaying proper modesty, addressed him, saying, The kine of this realm, O Vrihannala, are being driven away by the Kurus, and it is to conquer them that my brother will set out bow in hand.
Mbh.4.37.1479 And unto him striving to obtain a charioteer, Sairindhri, O Vrihannala, hath spoken about thy skill in the management of steeds.
Mbh.4.37.1481 Do thou, therefore, O Vrihannala, act as the charioteer of my brother.
Mbh.4.37.1489 Do thou, therefore, O Vrihannala, hold, as thou didst, the reins of my steeds, desirous as I am of righting with the Kurus and rescuing my bovine wealth.
Mbh.4.37.1491 Thus addressed, Vrihannala replied unto the prince, saying, What ability have I to act as a charioteer in the field of battle?
Mbh.4.37.1493 Uttara said, O Vrihannala, be thou a singer or a dancer, hold thou for the present, without loss of time, the reins of my excellent steeds, mounting upon my car'
Mbh.4.37.1496 And seeing him quite ignorant of putting on armour, Uttara himself equipped Vrihannala with a costly coat of mail.
Mbh.4.37.1497 And casing his own person in an excellent armour of solar effulgence, and hoisting his standard bearing the figure of a lion, the prince caused Vrihannala to become his charioteer.
Mbh.4.37.1498 And with Vrihannala to hold his reins, the hero set out, taking with him many costly bows and a large number of beautiful arrows.
Mbh.4.37.1499 And his friend, Uttara and her maidens then said unto Vrihannala, Do thou, O Vrihannala, bring for our dolls when thou comest back various kinds of good and fine cloths after vanquishing the Kurus assembled for battle of whom Bhishma and Drona are foremost'
Mbh.4.37.1503 Just, however, as they were starting elderly dames and maidens, and Brahmanas of rigid vows, beholding Uttara seated on his excellent car with Vrihannala as charioteer and under that great banner hoisted on high, walked round the car to bless the hero.
Mbh.4.37.1504 And the women said, Let the victory that Arjuna treading like a bull had achieved of old on the occasion of burning the forest of Khandava, be thine, O Vrihannala, when thou encounterest the Kurus today with prince Uttara
Mbh.4.38.1523 Do thou, therefore, O Vrihannala, cease to advance'
Mbh.4.38.1524 Vrihannala said, Why dost thou look so pale through fear and enhance the joy of thy foes?
Mbh.4.38.1537 Let men and women, O Vrihannala, laugh at me.
Mbh.4.38.1542 Vrihannala, however, exclaimed, This is not the practice of the brave, this flight of a Kshatriya from the field of battle.
Mbh.4.38.1561 And seized by Arjuna, the son of Virata began to lament most woefully like one in great affliction, and said, Listen, O good Vrihannala, O thou of handsome waist.
Mbh.4.38.1565 Do thou, O Vrihannala, set me free'
Mbh.4.41.1608 Why shouldst thou, O Vrihannala, make me a polluted and unclean bearer of corpses, by compelling me to come in contact with a corpse'
Mbh.4.41.1609 Vrihannala said, Thou shalt, O king of kings, remain clean and unpolluted.
Mbh.4.42.1635 Asked by me, O Vrihannala, do thou answer me truly.
Mbh.4.43.1637 SECTION XLIII Vrihannala said, That about which thou hath first enquired is Arjuna's bow, of world-wide fame, called Gandiva, capable of devastating hostile hosts.
Mbh.4.66.2591 And that illustrious hero entered the city of Virata, with a cheerful heart rehabilitating himself as Vrihannala, the car-driver of Uttara'
Mbh.4.66.2598 And having vanquished the whole hostile army and recovered the whole of the wealth from the Kurus, the heroic son of Virata returned to the city with Vrihannala as his car-driver
Mbh.4.67.2604 And the women and the maidens of the palace and the other females living in the inner apartments joyfully said unto him, Our kine having been seized by the Kurus, Bhuminjaya incensed at this and from excess of bravery hath issued forth alone with only Vrihannala as his second, for vanquishing the six mighty car-warriors, Bhishma the son of Santanu, and Kripa, and Karna, and Duryodhana, and Drona, and Drona's son who have all come with the Kuru army'
Mbh.4.67.2605 Vaisampayana continued, Then king Virata, hearing that his brave son had gone forth with only one car and with Vrihannala as his car-driver, became filled with grief, and addressing his chief counsellors, said, Without doubt, the Kauravas and other lords of earth, learning the defeat of the Trigartas, will never keep their ground.
Mbh.4.67.2611 Vaisampayana continued, Then king Yudhishthira the just, smilingly said unto the afflicted king Virata, If, O monarch, Vrihannala hath been his charioteer, the foe will never be able to take away thy kine today.
Mbh.4.67.2617 I do not, however, regard it strange that thy son should have vanquished the Kurus, for his victory is assured that hath Vrihannala for his charioteer'
Mbh.4.67.2638 Upon this, the illustrious king Yudhishthira said, Why should not he conquer that hath Vrihannala for his charioteer'
Mbh.4.67.2645 Yudhishthira said, There where Bhishma and Drona and Drona's son and the son of Vikartana and Kripa and king Duryodhana and other royal and mighty car-warriors are assembled or there where Indra himself is surrounded by the Maruts, what other person than Vrihannala can fight, encountering them all!
Mbh.4.67.2647 Indeed, it is Vrihannala only whose heart is filled with joy at sight of a terrible conflict.
Mbh.4.67.2659 And the porter then, approaching the king, said, Thy son Uttara, waiteth at the gate with Vrihannala as his companion'
Mbh.4.67.2661 Then Yudhishthira, the king of t e Kurus, gently whispered unto the ears of the warder, Let Uttara enter alone; Vrihannala must not come in.
Mbh.4.68.2679 Vaisampayana continued, When the bleeding had stopped, Vrihannala entered the council-room and having saluted both Virata and Kanka, stood silent.
