viṡvā-mitra

viṡvā́-mitra

N. of a celebrated Ṛishi orﾠ Sage (having the patr. Gāthina, Gādheya, andﾠ Jāhnava;
he was at first a functionary, together with Vasishṭha, of Su-dās, king of the Tṛitsus;
seeing Vasishṭha preferred by the king, he went over to the Bharatas, but could not prevent their being defeated by Su-dās, although he caused the waters of the rivers Vipāṡ andﾠ Ṡutudri to retire andﾠ so give the Bharatas free passage RV. III, 33 ;
he was born as a Kshatriya, deriving his lineage from an ancestor of Kuṡika, named Purū-ravas, of the lunar race of kings, andﾠ himself sovereign of Kanyā-kubja orﾠ Kanoj;
his fame rests chiefly on his contests with the great Brāhman Vasishṭha, andﾠ his success in elevating himself. though a Kshatriya, to the rank of a Brāhman seeﾠ Manu VII, 42:
the Rāmayaṇa, which makes him a companion andﾠ counsellor of the young Rāma-candra, records I, 51-65 how Viṡvāmitra, on his accession to the throne, visited Vasishṭha's hermitage,
andﾠ seeing there the cow of plenty <probably typical of go, the earth >,
offered him untold treasures in exchange for it, but being refused, prepared to take it by force;
a long contest ensued between the king andﾠ the saint <symbolical of the struggles between the Kshatriya andﾠ Brāhmanical classes>,
which ended in the defeat of Viṡvāmitra, whose vexation was such that, in order to become a Brāhman andﾠ thus conquer his rival, he devoted himself to intense austerities
during which he was seduced by the nymph Menakā andﾠ had by her a daughter, Ṡakuntalā,
gradually increasing the rigour of his mortification through thousands of years, till he successively earned the titles of Rājarshi, Ṛishi, Maharshi, andﾠ finally Brahmarshi;
he is supposed to be the author of nearly the whole of RV. III, andﾠ of IX, 67, 1315; X, 137, 5; 167 ;
moreover, a law-book, a Dhanurveda, andﾠ a medical wk. are attributed to him) RV. etc. etc.;
