HIDIMBAA

 

HIDIMBAA

Hidimbaa was a wife of Bhima and mother of Ghatotkacha.  On the burning of the “Lac Palace” the Pandavas escaped through a tunnel and reached a forest.  Bhima saw his brothers and mother feeling tired and sleepy. So, he carried them on his shoulder, ran very fast and kept them under banyan tree safe. When they were resting, he was guarding them vigilantly. At this juncture, a demoness named Hidimba was roaming in the forest with his brother demon Hidimban. Hidimban ordered her to bring those five for eating them. But on seeing the extra ordinary power and appearance of Bhima, she requested him to marry her.

Due to delay her brother came there and started fighting with Bhima in which the demon got killed by Bhima. The other Pandavas woke up on hearing the deafening sound of the demon. But Hidimba fell at their feet to permit her to marry mighty Bhima. As permitted she got married with him and delivered a strong boy immediately who was called Ghatotkacha. He also grew as young very fast and departed from there with his mother Hidimba to her abode.
