[edit]

Brihadratha

[edit]
Main article: Brihadratha

According to the Puranas, Brihadratha (also Maharatha) was the king of Magadha[2] and the founder of the Brihadratha dynasty. According to the Mahabharata and the Purana, he was the eldest of the five sons of Uparichara Vasu, the Kuru king of Chedi, and his queen was Girika.[3][failed verification] The name 'Brihadratha' is found twice in the Rigveda (I.36.18, X.49.6); however, it is not indicated whether this refers to the father of Jarasandha.[4]

Jarasandha

[edit]
Main article: Jarasandha

The Puranas mention that Jarasandha was the son of Sambhava.[2][failed verification] The Mahabharatha states that Jarasandha was the son of Brihadratha[4] and the greatest ruler of the dynasty.[5] According to ancient texts[which?], 24 Brihadratha kings ruled for many years.[6][failed verification] However, the Vayu Purana, Matsya Purana, and Vishnu Purana disagree regarding the Brihadratha period of rule. The astronomical works based on the Vishnu Purana state that the Brihadratha dynasty lasted for 1,000 years.[2][failed verification]

The name of Jarasandha appears in the Puranas many times. Jarasandha was inimical to the Yadava and is mentioned as a villain in the Mahabharata.[7]

Bhima slays Jarasandha in a wrestling fight.
