Dharmaputra felt worried that he could not feed the brahmins who accompanied him into the forest. Pāñcālī prayed to the Sun-God, and he gave the Akṣayapātra to her. (See Akṣayapātra). And, after this the Pāṇḍavas, along with the brahmins, entered the Kāmyaka forest. (M.B., Aranya Parva, Chapter 36).
