UPAYĀJA : Brother of the hermit Yāja. Both of them lived on the banks of the Gaṅgā. Dhṛṣṭadyumna and Pāñcālī were born to the King Drupada of Pāñcāla as the fruit of the sacrifices performed by these hermits. The story is given below:

The famous teacher Droṇa was the son of the hermit Bharadvāja, who was a friend of the King Pṛṣata of Pāñcāla. So King Pṛṣata sent his son Drupada to the hermitage of Bharadvāja for education. Thus Droṇa and Drupada were fellow students.

After completing his education Drupada became King of Pāñcāla. At that time the teacher Droṇa once visited the palace of the King. But Drupada did not duly receive his former classmate. Droṇa got angry at this and went to Hastināpura and became the teacher of the Pāṇḍavas and the Kauravas. As a remuneration for teaching them Droṇa demanded that Arjuna should bind Drupada and bring him before him. Arjuna did so. Drupada gave Droṇa a portion of his kingdom and got his liberty. From that day onwards Drupada wished for a son who would take revenge on Droṇa, and requested the hermit Upayāja to perform a sacrifice for getting a son. At first the hermit refused. The King served the hermit for a year. The hermit was pleased and asked the King to invite Yāja for the sacrifice. The King did as he was told and Yāja and Upayāja came to Pāñcāla and performed the sacrifice for getting a son. From the sacrificial dais Dhṛṣṭadyumna and Pāñcālī were born. (M.B. Ādi Parva, Chapter 166 and Sabhā Parva, Chapter 80, Stanza 45).
