ŚATAŚṚṄGA III. A mountain where Pāṇḍu once practised austerities. (Ādi Parva, Chapter 118, Verse 50). The Pāṇḍavas were born here and they were named in the presence of Munis who lived there. (Ādi Parva, Chapter 122). Also, here it was that Pāṇḍu died. Once in the course of a dream-trip of Arjuna in the company of Kṛṣṇa to Kailāsa they saw Śataśṛṅga also. (Droṇa Parva, Chapter 80, Verse 32).
