Thus he was saved. His father, the king of Campaka, had given the order that all of the troops should bathe, put on neck beads and tilaka, and go to battle to fight Arjuna; he said anyone who disobeyed would be thrown into hot oil. Prince Sankhayuta became late because of being sent off by his mother and later his wife. When Hamsadhvaja saw him arrive late, he thought the prince had ignored his command. This suspicion was further incited by the envious intrigues of two corrupt ministers, who then insisted that the king must stick to his word, even with Sankhayuta. They then forced the prince to jump into boiling oil, but because Sankhayuta was a great devotee, Krsna turned that hot oil into the cool, pleasing waters of the Sarayu river (which flows through Ayodhya). The story of Sankhayuta and his brother Suratha is in Mahabharata. MDd Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
