gaandeev

gaandeev mahaabhaarat kaal me bahut hi prasiddh dhanush tha. ek samay, ghor kaanan ke andar, kanv muni kathor tapasya kar rahe the. tapasya karate–karate, samaadhisth hone ke kaaran unhein bhaan heen naheen raha ki saara shareer deemak ke dvaara baaainbi bana diya gaya. us mitti ke dher par heen ek sundar baaains ug aaya. tapasya jab poorn hui tab brahma ji prakat hue. unhone apne amogh jal ke dvaara kanv ki kaaya ko kundan bana diya. unhein anek varadaan diye aur jab jaane lage to dhyaan aaya ki kanv ki moordha par ugi hui baaains koi saamaanya naheen ho sakti. iska sadupayog karna chaahiye. use kaat kar brahma ji ne vishvakarma ko de diya aur vishvakarma ne usase teen dhanush banaae– pinaak, shaagarङ, gaandeev. aur in teenon dhanushon ko brahma ji ne Bhagwan shankar ko samarpit kar diya. ise Bhagwan shankar ne indr ko diya aur fir baad varun Dave se yeh arjun ke paas pahuaincha, arjun ne is dhanush ke saath asankhya yuddh jeete, yeh dhanush bahut hi majabut aur sudrudh tha.
