Śārṅga : nt.: Name of the bow of Viṣṇu, Kṛṣṇa (śārṅgaṁ tu vaiṣṇavaṁ prāhuḥ… dhārayām āsa yat kṛṣṇaḥ 5. 155. 6).


A. Acquisition: In his fight against Naraka, Kṛṣṇa cut off the nooses of the demon Muru, killed him, then conquered the demon Naraka, son of Bhūmi (bhauma), and brought back with him the jewelled kuṇḍalas, sixteen thousand excellent women and various jewels; he then received the best Śārṅga bow (pratipede hṛṣīkeśaḥ śārṅgaṁ ca dhanur uttamam) 5. 155. 8-9.


B. Description: heavenly (divya) 5. 155. 6; 3. 21. 24 (dhanuṣā divyena not named); splendid (rucira) 3. 23. 1; best (uttama) 5. 155. 9; lustrous (tejomaya) 5. 155. 6; causing fear to the army of the enemy (parasenābhayāvaha) 5. 155. 6.


C. Association with Kṛṣṇa: As Kṛṣṇa's bow, it is mentioned among the weapons placed on his chariot when he started from the Khāṇḍavaprastha to Dvārakā 2. 2. 12; Kṛṣṇa asked his charioteer Dāruka to place the bow (not named) in his chariot when it was to be made ready for Kṛṣṇa's eventual intervention in the war 7. 56. 32; Śārṅga bow, along with conch, disc, mace and Śakti appeared on Kṛṣṇa's different arms when he manifested his fierce form, as a great wonder, in the Sabhā of the Kauravas 5. 129. 9-10; Kṛṣṇa (and Viṣṇu) have epithets like śārṅgadhanvan 3. 120. 6; 3. 189. 30; 5. 73. 2; 5. 135. 30; 6. 61. 35; 7. 9. 71; 8. 5. 16 (śārṅgaº ºdhanvan); 10. 13. 6, 9; 12. 200. 6; 13. 135. 120; 14. 52. 6; 16. 9. 14; śārṅgadhanurdhara 6. 61. 45; śārṅgarathāṅgapāṇi 6. 55. 94; śārṅgagadādhara 2. 41. 33; śārṅgacakragadādhara 2. 42. 34; 16. 4. 44; śārṅgacakrāsipāṇi 12. 43. 16.


D. Use: Kṛṣṇa used it in his fight with Śālva; Kṛṣṇa's arrows released from Śārṅga first failed to reach the Saubhapura of Śālva 3. 21. 18; he again released ayutas of arrows against Śālva from his heavenly bow 3. 21. 24; the arrows released from Śārṅga pierced the bodies of the demons in the Saubhapura and they fell down in the ocean 3. 21. 28; due to the māyā of Śālva, Kṛṣṇa saw the son of Śūra (Vasudeva) falling down from the Saubha; as a result, he was confused and the Śārṅga slipped down from his hand 3. 22. 22-25; when Kṛṣṇa knew the truth, he picked up the splendid bow and shot arrows from it which cut off the heads of the enemies 3. 23. 1-2.


E. Status: The Śārṅga bow of Viṣṇu counted among the only three heavenly bows of divine beings, the other two being Gāṇḍiva of Varuṇa and Vijaya of Mahendra (trīṇy evaitāni divyāni dhanūṁṣi divicāriṇām) 5. 155. 5; hence the Vijaya bow obtained by Rukmin is said to be comparable with the Śārṅga 5. 155. 4.

Vedic Index of Names and Subjects

पृष्ठभागोऽयं यन्त्रेण केनचित् काले काले मार्जयित्वा यथास्रोतः परिवर्तयिष्यते। तेन मा भूदत्र शोधनसम्भ्रमः। सज्जनैः मूलमेव शोध्यताम्।

Śārṅga.--The Anukramaṇī (Index) of the Rigveda ascribes a hymn of that text to the Śārṅgas, Jaritṛ, Droṇa, Sārisṛkva, and Stambamitra. The Mahābhārata contains a tale describing how the four Śārṅgas, sons of the Ṛṣi Mandapāla, were saved from the great fire in the Khāṇḍava forest by means of prayers. Sieg has attempted to use this tale for the elucidation of the hymn in question, but without substantial success. As Oldenberg says, the tale is based on the hymn rather than vice versa.
