BORI CE- KARNA PARVA CHAPTER 1216(66)

Using his weapons, Radheya countered all of Savyasachi's weapons. At that time, his valour seemed to be greater than that of Partha. Krishna saw that Arjuna was afflicted because of Karna's weapons.

BORI CE SHANTI PARVA CHAPTER 1330(2)

​Rama welcomed him and asked him everything about his gotra. He was extremely delighted at this warm welcome. Karna resided on Mahendra, supreme among mountains, and met gandharvas, rakshasas, yakshas and gods there.

**There, in the proper way, he obtained all the weapons from the best of the Bhrigu lineage**. Because of this, he was loved by the gods, the gandharvas and the rakshasas.

Narada said, “The tiger among the Bhrigu lineage was pleased with the strength of Karna’s arms, affection, self-control and the service he showed towards his preceptor. He was also excellent in austerities.

Therefore, in the proper way, that supreme of ascetics taught him everything about brahmastra, about its release and means of withdrawal.

Having obtained this knowledge, Karna was delighted and dwelt in the hermitage of the one descended from the Bhrigu lineage. His valour was extraordinary and he strove to learn dhanurveda.

**Bhargava imparted all his knowledge of dhanurveda to the great-souled Karna**, tiger among men, having been extremely pleased with him.

O king! Had Karna not been a deserving person, the descendant of the Bhrigu lineage would not have given him those celestial weapons.
