surang ke raste lakshagrih se nikal kar pandav apani mata ke sath van ke andar chale gaye. kee kos chalane ke karan bhimasen ko chho d kar shesh log thakan se behal ho gaye aur ek vat vriksh ke niche let gaye. mata kunti pyas se vyakul thian isaliye bhimasen kisi jalashay ya sarovar ki khoj mean chale gaye. ek jalashay drishtigat hone par unhoanne pahale svayan jal piya aur mata tatha bhaiyoan ko jal pilane ke liye laut kar unake pas aye. ve sabhi thakan ke karan gahari nidra mean nimagn ho chuke the atah bhim vahaan par pahara dene lage. us van mean hidimb nam ka ek bhayanak asur ka nivas tha. manavoan ka gandh milane par usane pandavoan ko pak d lane ke liye apani bahan hidimba ko bheja taki vah unhean apana ahar bana kar apani kshudha poorti kar sake. vahaan par pahuanchane par hidimba ne bhimasen ko pahara dete huye dekha aur unake sundar mukharavind tatha balishth sharir ko dekh kar un par asakt ho gee. usane apani rakshasi maya se ek apoorv lavanmayi sundari ka roop bana liya aur bhimasen ke pas ja pahuanchi. bhimasen ne usase poochha, 'he sundari! tum kaun ho aur ratri mean is bhayanak van mean akeli kyoan ghoom rahi ho?' bhim ke prashn ke uttar mean hidimba ne kaha, 'he narashreshth! maian hidimba nam ki rakshasi hooan. mere bhaee ne mujhe ap logoan ko pak d kar lane ke liye bheja hai kintu mera hriday ap par asakt ho gaya hai tatha maian apako apane pati ke roop mean prapt karana chahati hooan. mera bhaee hidimb bahut dusht aur kroor hai kintu maian itani samarthy rakhati hooan ki apako usake changul se bacha kar surakshit sthan tak pahuancha sakooan.'
idhar apani bahan ko laut kar ane mean vilamb hota dekh kar hidimb us sthan par ja pahuancha jahaan par hidimba bhimasen se vartalap kar rahi thi. hidimba ko bhimasen ke sath premalap karate dekhakar vah krodhit ho utha aur hidimba ko dand dene ke liye usaki or jhapata. yah dekh kar bhim ne use rokate huye kaha, 're dusht rakshas! tujhe stri par hath uthate lajja nahian ati? yadi too itana hi vir aur parakrami hai to mujhase yuddh kar.' itana kah kar bhimasen tal thoank kar usake sath mall yuddh karane lage. kunti tatha any pandavoan ki bhi niand khul gee. vahaan par bhim ko ek rakshas ke sath yuddh karate tatha ek roopavati kanya ko kh di dekh kar kunti ne poochha, 'putri! tum kaun ho?' hidimba ne sari batean unhean bata di. arjun ne hidimb ko marane ke liye apana dhanush utha liya kintu bhim ne unhean ban chho dane se mana karate huye kaha, 'bhaiya! ap ban mat chho diye, yah mera shikar hai aur mere hi hathoan marega.' itana kah kar bhim ne hidimb ko donoan hathoan se pak d kar utha liya aur use hava mean anekoan bar ghuma kar itani tivrata ke sath bhoomi par pataka ki usake pran-pakheroo u d gaye.
hidimb ke marane par ve log vahaan se prasthan ki taiyari karane lage, is par hidimba ne kunti ke charanoan mean gir kar prarthana karane lagi, 'he mata! maianne apake putr bhim ko apane pati ke roop mean svikar kar liya hai. ap log mujhe kripa karake svikar kar lijiye. yadi ap logoan ne majhe svikar nahian kiya to maian isi kshan apane pranoan ka tyag kar dooangi.' hidimba ke hriday mean bhim ke prati prabal prem ki bhavana dekh kar yudhishthir bole, 'hidimbe! maian tumhean apane bhaee ko sauanpata hooan kintu yah keval din mean tumhare sath raha karega aur ratri ko ham logoan ke sath raha karega.' hidimba isake liye taiyar ho gee aur bhimasen ke sath anandapoorvak jivan vyatit karane lagi. ek varsh vyatit hone par hidimba ka putr utpann hua. utpann hote samay usake sir par kesh (utkach) n hone ke karan usaka nam ghatotkach rakha gaya. vah atyant mayavi nikala aur janm lete hi b da ho gaya.
hidimba ne apane putr ko pandavoan ke pas le ja kar kaha, 'yah apake bhaee ki santan hai atah yah ap logoan ki seva mean rahega.' itana kah kar hidimba vahaan se chali gee. ghatotkach shraddha se pandavoan tatha mata kunti ke charanoan mean pranam kar ke bola, 'ab mujhe mere yogy seva batayean.? usaki bat sun kar kunti boli, 'too mere vansh ka sabase b da pautr hai. samay ane par tumhari seva avashy li jayegi.' is par ghatotkach ne kaha, 'ap log jab bhi mujhe smaran kareange, maian ap logoan ki seva mean upasthit ho jauanga.' itana kah kar ghatotkach uttarakhand ki or chala gaya.
