धृष्टद्युम्न / DHṚṢṬADYUMNA. The son of King drupada. He was brother of pāñcālī.1) Birth. drupada and droṇa were fellow students. After finishing his education drupada became King. When droṇa came to his palace drupada did not honour him. droṇa got angry, went to hastināpura and began to teach the Pāṇḍava and the kaurava princes in archery and other weapons. When the weapon-training was over, arjuna, at the instruction of droṇa, defeated and captured drupada. droṇa seized half of his kingdom from him.
As drupada was not powerful to wreak vengeance on droṇa, he performed a sacrifice to obtain a son who could take revenge on droṇa and regain his lost prestige. A son and a daughter were born from the sacrificial fire. The son was named dhṛṣṭadyumna. The daughter grew up and became the famous pāñcālī. The pāṇḍavas married her.
At the time of birth, dhṛṣṭadyumna had a crown on his head, and armour on his body, bow, arrows and sword in his hands. He ran out of the fire into a chariot and sat in it as if he were about to begin a travel of conquest. Seeing this the Pāñcālas were filled with joy. There was a celestial voice: “This boy will destroy the fear of the Pāñcālas. He is born to slay droṇa.” At this time the queen approached the sacrificing priest with a request that the children born of the sacrificial fire should consider her as their mother. Accordingly the children accepted the wife of drupada as their mother. Brāhmaṇas named the boy dhṛṣṭadyumna and the girl kṛṣṇā.(1. The fast taken on the eleventh day of the bright lunar fortnight in the month of vaiśākha.)(2. Because he was born with Dhṛṣṭatva (boldness) amarṣatva (impatience) and dyumna (vigour) the son of drupada was called dhṛṣṭadyumna. draupadī was called kṛṣṇa as she was of kṛṣṇa varṇa (dark complexion. Thus drupada got two children from ‘Makha’ (sacrifice).) (M.B. Ādi Parva, Chapter 166). (For more particulars see under ‘Pāñcālī’ para 2).2) Till the battle of bhārata. The history of dhṛṣṭadyumna till the battle between the pāṇḍavas and the kauravas, is given below.
The news that dhṛṣṭadyumna was born to kill droṇa spread everywhere. The Broad-minded droṇa did not seem to mind this news. droṇa took dhṛṣṭadyumna to his house, with the permission of drupada and gave him training in the wielding of weapons. He believed that God's will could not be thwarted. After he had learned archery dhṛṣṭadyumna returned to his kingdom. Next, we see dhṛṣṭadyumna at the svayaṁvara (marriage) of Pāñcāli. Several kings arrived from various countries on that occasion. When the auspicious moment came, dhṛṣṭadyumna brought pāñcālī to the nuptial dais. He proclaimed the rules and conditions that the competitors of svayaṁvara had to observe. After that he conversed with each king who was present. In the svayaṁvara pāñcālī accepted arjuna. The pāṇḍavas and pāñcālī were given the Kumbhakāra mandira (the Palace of Kumbhakāra) which stood in the city of drupada, to stay for that night. Though the pāṇḍavas were in the guise of Brāhmaṇas, dhṛṣṭadyumna had his own doubts about their identity. So he hid himself somehwere in the Palace and kept an eye on them. This shows his peculiar trait of observation. After this he returned to his Palace and pacified his father who had been much worried about his daughter's selection.
Next, we see dhṛṣṭadyumna, during the time of the forest life of the pāṇḍavas. He consoled pāñcālī, who was miserable. After that he took the sons of pāñcālī, to his house. While the pāṇḍavas were living in the forest ‘Kāmyaka’, dhṛṣṭadyumna visited them. The forest life of the pāṇḍavas came to an end. A battle between the pāṇḍavas and the kauravas became inevitable. Then the Pāṇdavas selected dhṛṣṭadyumna, as the commander-in-general of their army. He ordered for a general parade of the army and gave them instructions. (M.B. Ādi Parva, Chapters 166 to 195
