They went to various places where they struggled and overcame challenges.

Their exile helped them gain strength and spiritual growth. They met some sages who helped them learn the true purpose of life.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva; font-size: 14pt;\"><strong>Also Read:<span style=\"color: #3366ff;\"><a style=\"color: #3366ff;\" href=\"https:\/\/instaastro.com\/blog\/barbarik-story\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"> The Story Of Barbarika: The Hero Who Didn\u2019t Fight The War!<\/a><\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-family: verdana, geneva; font-size: 14pt;\">The forests where the Pandavas visited for exile were the Kamyaka, Dwaitavana, Matsya, Panchmarhi, and Badrikashrama. Let us know about their journey in detail:\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><strong><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva; font-size: 14pt;\">1. The Kamayaka Forest<\/span><\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-family: verdana, geneva; font-size: 14pt;\">The Kamyakavana is situated on the banks of the <strong>Saraswati River, west of Kurukshetra Plain<\/strong>. This was a sacred place where they spent their first few years of exile. Here, they performed certain rituals that helped them grow spiritually before the great Mahabharata war. Many sages performed penance in this forest.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva; font-size: 14pt;\">Arrival of Kauravas at Kamyaka Forest<\/span><\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-family: verdana, geneva; font-size: 14pt;\">The Kauravas visited the Pandavas in the Kamyaka forest, making fun of their poor living condition. However, this didn\u2019t stop the Pandavas from maintaining their calm, and they continued to focus on their spiritual practices.<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva; font-size: 14pt;\">Abduction of Draupadi and Other Events<\/span><\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-family: verdana, geneva; font-size: 14pt;\">There were certain incidents in this forest, such as the marriage of Bhima and Hidimba and the abduction of Draupadi by Jayadratha. Rishi Durvasa went to meet the Pandavas at the Kamyaka forest to get some food.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-family: verdana, geneva; font-size: 14pt;\">The Pandavas, for some reason, couldn\u2019t provide him a meal but managed to please him, serving generosity and avoiding any curse. Also, the Pandavas felt heartbroken at this place when Arjuna went away. The Kamyaka forest lacked the cheerfulness after his departure.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><strong><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva; font-size: 14pt;\">2. <\/span><\/strong><strong><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva; font-size: 14pt;\">Places the Pandavas Visited: <\/span><\/strong><strong><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva; font-size: 14pt;\">The Dvaitavana<\/span><\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-family: verdana, geneva; font-size: 14pt;\">The Dvaitavana is the south portion of the Kamyaka forest. After the Pandavas left the Kamyaka forest, they entered this forest, where they encountered several events. Sage Dhaumya guided the Pandavas to the Dvaitavana forest, giving them peace in this Vanvaas period.<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva; font-size: 14pt;\">Sage Markandeya and Vyasa&#8217;s Visit<\/span><\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-family: verdana, geneva; font-size: 14pt;\">During this harsh and challenging period of their exile in this first, the sage Markandeya visited the Pandavas and relieved them from the cycle of destruction and creation of the world. Also, Sage Vyasa visits the Pandas in the Dvaitavana forest to give them advice and guidance.<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva; font-size: 14pt;\">The Curse of Pandavas<\/span><\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-family: verdana, geneva; font-size: 14pt;\">An important story of the Dvaitavana forest was about the killing of the deer of a Brahmana by the Pandavas, who cursed the Pandavas and said that they would have to face challenges in their lives. The Pandavas lost all their weapons in this forest, which were found to be taken by Gods.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><strong><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva; font-size: 14pt;\">3. The Matsya Kingdom<\/span><\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-family: verdana, geneva; font-size: 14pt;\">The Matsya Kingdom was founded by the ruler Upachira Vasu. The ruler of the Kingdom was Virata. This kingdom became a part of the Mahajanapadas. The Kingdom became a part of their exile for the Pandavas.<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva; font-size: 14pt;\">Change of Identities by Pandavas<\/span><\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-family: verdana, geneva; font-size: 14pt;\">The Matsya Kingdom was among the other places the Pandavas visited for exile. In this place, they changed identities to take shelter in the Kingdom. Every Pandava was given a duty in the kingdom.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-family: verdana, geneva; font-size: 14pt;\"> Yudhisthira became the advisor at the King\u2019s court, Bhima was appointed as a cook, Nakula as a stable keeper, Sahadeva as a caretaker, and Draupadi as a female maidservant. Arjuna changed his identity as a music teacher at the court of the king.<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva; font-size: 14pt;\">The Attack by Kauravas<\/span><\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-family: verdana, geneva; font-size: 14pt;\">The Kauravas came to know about their hidden exile and launched an attack in the Matsya Kingdom, to which Arjuna defeated the warriors of the Kuru dynasty. After the end of their exile, they informed about their true identities, and listening to this, Virata allied with them for the Kurukshetra War and married his daughter Uttara to Abhimanyu, the son of Arjuna.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><strong><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva; font-size: 14pt;\">4. The Panchmarhi Forest<\/span><\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-family: verdana, geneva; font-size: 14pt;\">The Panchmarhi forest is located in Madhya Pradesh, now a beautiful place for tourist attraction. The Pandavas spent some time in their exile in the Panchmarhi forest. During their exile in this forest, they took shelter in the caves.<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva; font-size: 14pt;\">The Pandava Caves<\/span><\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-family: verdana, geneva; font-size: 14pt;\">The Pandavas took shelter in Panchmarhi caves, now called the \u2018<strong>Pandava Caves<\/strong>\u2019. The cave of Draupadi was the biggest of all the caves and had enough air circulation inside. The Bhima cave is the most congested one and was too dark. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-family: verdana, geneva; font-size: 14pt;\">The Pandavas meditated in these caves. The place\u00a0where Arjuna mediated is the &#8216;Bee Falls&#8217;, which is now a popular tourist attraction. The place where Draupadi bathed is the &#8216;Draupadi Kund&#8217;. Here, she prayed for the exile to end, and her prayers were answered.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-family: verdana, geneva; font-size: 14pt;\"><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva; font-size: 14pt;\"><strong>Also Read:<span style=\"color: #3366ff;\"><a style=\"color: #3366ff;\" href=\"https:\/\/instaastro.com\/blog\/vidur-in-mahabharata\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"> Vidur in Mahabharata: The Forgotten Hero<\/a><\/span><\/strong><\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva; font-size: 14pt;\">The Battle Between Bhima and Jatasura<\/span><\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva; font-size: 14pt;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Here, the battle between Bhima and Jatasura happened in this forest when Jatasura disguised himself as the Brahmin to capture Draupadi and the weapons of the Pandavas. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva; font-size: 14pt;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">One day, when the five brothers went out, Jatasura came and revealed his true form to Draupadi. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A battle occurred, where Bhima killed the demon, Jatasur, and protected Draupadi.\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<h3><strong><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva; font-size: 14pt;\">5.

Sage Lomasa visited the Pandavas here and said that Arjuna must go to heaven to take the divine weapons from the Gods.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva; font-size: 14pt;\">Arjuna\u2019s Meet with Lord Shiva<\/span><\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-family: verdana, geneva; font-size: 14pt;\">The Himalayas surround Badrikashrama, where sages practice deep penance. In this place, Arjuna also performed penance to please Shiva. To test his devotion, Shiva took the form of a hunter and battled Arjuna. However, in the end, Arjuna realized that the hunter was the Supreme Lord Shiva and surrendered himself to him.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-family: verdana, geneva; font-size: 14pt;\">His devotion pleased Lord Shiva, and he returned the weapons of the Pandavas from Indraloka. Lord Shiva also taught Arjuna Pashupatashastra. Yudhisthira, who\u2019s known for his wisdom, discussed the importance of religion and practice practised at this place.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; font-family: verdana, geneva; font-size: 14pt;\">Following him, the other Pandavas also practised penance. This place, Draupadi asked Bhima, questioning their suffering. However, Yudhisthira believed that only Dharma could get them victory.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><strong><span style=\"font-family: verdana, geneva; font-size: 18pt;\">Frequently Answered Questions<\/span><\/strong><\/h2>\n<div class=\"custom-faq\" itemscope itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/FAQPage\"> <div class=\"faq-item\" itemprop=\"mainEntity\" itemscope itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/Question\"><div class=\"faq-question\"><h4 class=\"faq-question-heading\" itemprop=\"name\">1.
