Ekachakra is a small village, located 20 km away from the town of Rampurhat in the Birbhum District of West Bengal. Within Hindu tradition, the five Pandavas from the epic, Mahabharata are described as staying in Ekachakra during their years in exile. It is also famous as the birthplace of Nityananda Rama (b 1474 CE), a principal religious figure in the Gaudiya Vaishnava tradition.
Hidimba met the other Pandavas and requested Kunti to permit Bhima to marry her. Hidimba promised to return Bhima to the Pndavas after the birth of a child. Kunti and her four sons were impressed by Hidimba, and agreed to accept her as Bhima’s wife.
After some time Hidimba gave a birth to a son, who was named Ghatotkacha. Ghatotkacha grew up in no time and, like his father, became a great warrior. Bhima returned to his family with his son and wife. As promised, Hidimba left with her son after a short visit and Ghatotkacha promised to return to the Pandavas whenever they need him.
When Pandavas were about to leave the forest, sage Veda Vyasa arrived there. He consoled the Pandavas, and assured them that justice will finally prevail. On the advice of Veda Vyasa, Kunti and her five sons went to a nearby town, called Ekachakra, and stayed there in a Brahmin’s house, disguised as Brahmins. The Pandavas lived on begging alms and chanting prayers. Kunti always divided the food into two portions – one for Bhima alone, and the other portion for the rest of them. Bhima was big and could eat as much as all the other Pandavas!
One day, while Kunti was resting at noon, she heard wailings inside the Brahmin's house where they were staying. Considering it to be a part of their duty to stand beside their host at the time of adversity, Kunti went to inquire of their misery. The Brahmin then told her the details about a demon named Bakasura who captured the city years ago. Since then he has been terrorizing the inhabitants. Overcome by fear, the ruler of that kingdom fled to the other city so there was no one to protect the citizens. He continued that, “Bakasura comes out from his cave and would kill men, women and children and would feast on them at his will. The villagers tried to make a deal with him that they would provide food and wine for him only if he would leave them alone. They would send him food drawn by two bullocks and driven by a human being, and he can eat it all, bullocks and human included. Bakasura agreed to the proposal and has stopped terrorizing the people since. However, now it is my turn to take the food to him. Since my family cannot survive without me, I will have to take us all for him to feast on".
Kunti was moved by the story, and thought that a good deed must be repaid with a good deed and to the surprise of all, she offered her help. "I have five children and I will send Bhima to meet the demon. He is strong enough to kill the demon and free the town from his clutch forever. The only request that I will make is to keep it a secret and not to reveal our identity." All preparations were made for Bhima to take the food to Bakasura. Bhima left the town with a cart full of food to the demon Bakasura.
Upcoming episode: On the way, he ate most of the food and reached the demon’s place with almost an empty cart. Noticing that, Bakasur got furious and attacked Bhima. A fearful fight soon ensued and...
