Historical Usage
Sanghamitra is mentioned in the epic Mahabharata as the name of a princess and the younger sister of Draupadi. When the five Pandava brothers were in exile, they lived incognito as the five ascetics known as the Pancha Kailasas. During this time, Draupadi, who was believed to be their sister, was abducted by the Kaurava prince Dushasana. The brothers were away at the time and sought the help of Bhima to rescue Draupadi. Sanghamitra, who was deeply devoted to the brothers, volunteered to accompany Bhima to the palace of Hastinapura.
