Immediately Duryodhana bound him by ropes and put him in more deep waters. Bhīma reaching the bottom was bitten by all the snakes. This fortunately served as an antidote and the poison in Bhīma’s body was neutralized and Bhīma became his old self again and killed all the serpents. Those serpents who escaped went and brought their chief, Vāsuki. At that time it was Āryaka who advised Vāsuki to give him ‘rasapāna’. (Ślokas 64-68, Chapter 127, Ādi Parva, M.B.).
