Week 12: Reading Diary B

In this part, Arjuna is cursed to live like a eunuch for a year for refusing Urvashi. Bhima tells the story of Mankanaka and how Shiva had to come to stop his dancing. Then Yudhisthira tells the story of Rishyashringa's birth and how Urvashi provoked it. Rishyashringa had brought rain to the country of Anga.

The Pandavas goes to the Mount Kailasa, where Yudhishthira disturbs the silence and gets attacked by the mountain. Draupadi asks Bhima to get her a lotus flower and he does so by getting past Vishvaravana.

The Pandavas comes down from the mountain and save Duryodhana from the gandharvas and ruins his plans to embarrass the Pandavas.

Draupadi asks Vyasa to tell them the love story and he does so by telling the story of Savitri.
