Mahabharata
EnglishCākshushā, a Gandharvic science given to Arjuna by Citraratha. § 221 (Caitrarathap.): I, 170, 6478.--§ 221b (Caitrarathap.): C. had been communicated by Manu to Soma, by Soma to Viśvāvasu, and by Viśvāvasu to Citraratha after ascetic penances, and when communicated by the preceptor to a man without energy, it becomes fruitless. By means of it one may see whatever one wishes. One can acquire it only by standing on one leg for six months
but Arjuna obtained it without any rigid vow. This knowledge makes the Gandharvas superior to men and equal to the gods.
