Had Bhima really taken a vow to wash Draupadi’s hair with blood? what is the truth

Mahabharata: According to the Mahabharata, Draupadi loved Arjuna the most, but she had the most affection for Bhima among the five Pandavas. It is said that it was Bhima who first protested against the injustice done to Draupadi during the Chir Haran incident.

During the Mahabharata, many such vows were taken which became the reason for the war, in which lakhs of warriors were killed. Out of these vows, Bhima had taken a vow to wash Draupadi’s hair with blood, what is its truth. Let’s know.

Why did Bhima take a vow to wash Dopadri’s hair with blood?

In the Mahabharata, Yudhishthira put Draupadi at stake at the time of Dyutkrida and maternal uncle Shakuni won Draupadi on behalf of Duryodhana. Dushasan dragged Draupadi by her hair and brought her to the assembly. Pandavas remained silent following the rules of the game but the flame of vengeance was burning in them. When Bhima saw Dushasan dragging Draupadi by her hair, Bhima vowed that he would wash Draupadi’s hair with the blood of Duryodhana and Dushasan and drink Dushasan’s blood.

By killing Dushasan, Bhima fulfills his vow.

Draupadi had told Bhima that she would not tie her hair until the blood of Dushasan’s chest was brought. Draupadi did not tie her hair for 13 years. In the battle of Kurukshetra, Bhima broke Dushasan’s chest and fulfilled his oath of drinking blood.

Did Bhima drink Dushasan’s blood?

According to the Mahabharata, when the Pandavas went to meet Dhritarashtra and Gandhari after the end of the war, Gandhari asked Bhima, did you drink the blood of Dushasan. Bhim said that he definitely fulfilled his promise but the blood of Dushasan did not go beyond my teeth.
