MUDGALA III : (MAUDGALYA). A sage of Purāṇic fame.

1) Mudgala and Durvāsas. Mudgala had never been provoked even once by anger. Durvāsas once came to the āśrama of Mudgala in Kurukṣetra where he was living on alms received by begging. Durvāsas came naked. Mudgala gave all that he got that day to Durvāsas. The latter ate to his heart's content and smeared on his naked body what remained after his meal. Mudgala never got angry. This continued for days together and not for once did Mudgala get angry. Durvāsas was immensely pleased with this behaviour of Mudgala and he offered to send him to heaven with his body. Devas came with a Vimāna at once. Mudgala after enquiring about the conveniences and luxuries of heaven refused to go. (Chapter 261, Vana Parva).

2) Other details.

(i) Mudgala, who was well versed in the Vedas, was a priest in the Sarpasatra of Janamejaya. (Śloka 9, Chapter 53, Ādi Parva).

(ii) Mudgala visited Bhīṣma lying on his bed of arrows. (Śloka 9, Chapter 47, Ādi Parva).

(iii) Once Śatadyumna gave Mudgala a golden house. (Śloka 21, Chapter 137, Anuśāsana Parva).

(iv) Once the King of Cola conducted a Yāga making Mudgala the chief priest. (Chapter 130, Part IV. Padma Purāṇa).

Mudgala and Mudgalanī, ‘Mudgala's wife,’ both figure in a hopelessly obscure hymn of the Rigveda, variously interpreted by Pischel and Geldner and von Bradke as telling of a real chariot race in which, despite difficulties, Mudgala won by his wife's aid. The Indian tradition is as variant as the interpretations of modern authorities. Ṣaḍguruśiṣya explains that Mudgala's oxen were stolen, that he pursued the thieves with the one old ox he had left, and that hurling his hammer (dru-ghaṇa) he caught the marauders. Yāska, on the other hand, says that Mudgala won a race with a drughaṇa and an ox instead of with two oxen. It is pretty clear that, as Roth observed, the tradition is merely a guess, and a bad one, at the meaning of an obscure hymn, and this view is accepted by Oldenberg. Bloomfield has interpreted the legend as one of heavenly, not of human, events. Mudgala, probably a variant form of Mudgara, which in the later language means a hammer or a similar weapon, may be meant as a personfication of the thunderbolt of Indra, rather than a real man. Later Mudgala is a mythical sage.
