Historical Usage
According to Indian mythology, Dhruvavati was a revered sage's wife who underwent severe penance to bring back her husband who had been cursed to wander the earth as a tree. She undertook the penance at the Triveni Sangam, where she was eventually granted her wish. This story is found in various Hindu scriptures, including the Mahabharata.
Ancient (pre-200 BC)
In another version of the story, Dhruvavati is the name of a princess of the Haihayas, who was known for her exceptional beauty and piety. She was married to the king of the Yadavas, Vajranabh, and they had a son named Prithu. After Prithu's birth, Dhruvavati was exiled from the kingdom due to a misunderstanding and took refuge in the forest. She lived there in penance, and eventually, Vajranabh was moved by her devotion and brought her back to the kingdom.
Medieval (circa 10th-12th centuries)
