Mahabharata English
*maṇḍūka^1, pl. (“frogs”): III, ††13165, ††13166, ††13168, ††13169, ††13170, ††13172.
maṇḍūka^2, pl. (ºāḥ), a kind of horse: II, 1043 (tittirikalmāshān mºākhyān hayottamān).
पुराणम् English
मण्डूक / MAṆḌŪKA. A class of horse. These highclass horses helped arjuna in his campaign of victory. (Śloka 6, Chapter 28, Sabhā Parva).
मण्डूकस् / MAṆḌŪKA(S). A tribe. The King of this tribe was āyus. The daughter of āyus, Suśobhā was married to parīkṣit of ikṣvāku dynasty. They had three sons, śala, dala and bala. (Chapter 190, Vana Parva).
Vedic Reference English
Maṇḍūka is the name of ‘frog’ in the Rigveda^1 and later, ^2
the feminine Maṇḍūkī also occurring.^3 The famous frog hymn
of the Rigveda^4 compares with Brahmins the frogs croaking
as they awake to activity at the beginning of the rains. It has
been explained by Max Müller^5 as a satire on the Brahmins.
Geldner, ^6 agreeing with this view, thinks that it is directed by
its Vasiṣṭha composer against rival Brahmins, probably the
Viśvāmitras.^7 The view, however, which interprets the hymn
as a rain charm^8 seems on the whole more likely. The frog,
from its connexion with water, was considered to have cooling
properties. Thus after the burning of the dead body the frog
is invited to come to the spot where the cremation has taken
place in order to cool it down.^9 Similarly the frog is invoked
in the Atharvaveda against the fire of fever.^10
