After departing from Rishi Veda’s ashram, Utanka was consumed by a burning desire for revenge against Takshaka, the serpent who caused the untimely death of King Parikshit. His journey led him to Hastinapur, where he sought to persuade the newly victorious King Janamejaya to perform a powerful snake sacrifice. Through sharp words and painful truths, Utanka reminded the king of his royal duty—to avenge his father’s death and protect the kingdom from Takshaka’s menace. Stirred by this revelation, King Janamejaya set in motion one of the most legendary rituals in ancient history.
