Talk:Rishyasringa

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I thought the point of the story of Rishyasringa was to show the insecurity of virtue founded upon ignorance, and there is nothing in this article about that. C. Rajagopalachari seems to agree, in chapter 32 of his summary of the Mahabharata (http://home.att.net/~gitaprasad/mahabharata.htm). I know that his summary is not an authoritative source, so would someone with knowledge of the actual epic be able to offer assistance? Adityan 17:41, 6 July 2006 (UTC)

I suspect that it is there, and repeated in more than one work, because it a good story-teller's story, and that the lessons that are drawn from it are secondary. Imc 18:55, 15 August 2007 (UTC)


[edit] Ekasringa

I thought Ekasringa (one horned) was another character, not the same as this one, who has two horns? Imc 18:51, 15 August 2007 (UTC)
