c8.324

∗ The Bráhmaṇa, moreover, expressly designates *arjuna* as the 'secret name' (*guhyaṃ náma*) of Indra [ii. 1. 2. 11, v. 4. 3. 7]. How is this to be understood? The commentary remarks on it: *arjuna iti híndrasya rahasyaṃ náma | ata eva khalu tatputre Páṇḍavamadhyame pravṛittiḥ*. [What is the reading of the Káṇva recension in these passages? Has it, as in the Saṃhitá, so here also, not *arjuna*, but *phalguna*?]
