Vārdhakshemi, Pāṇḍava Ratha at Kurukshetra

Vārdhakshemi was a warrior on the Pāṇḍava side at Kurukshetra. Bhīshma names him as a ratha (chariot warrior) of the Pāṇḍava army in the Rathātiratha-Saṃkhyāna, his count of the warriors on both sides.

In Bhīshma’s count

Vārdhakshemi is listed among the rathas of the Pāṇḍava host in Bhīshma’s Rathātiratha list. He was one of the many allied warriors who gathered at Kurukshetra under the Pāṇḍava banner. The Mahābhārata records no more about him.
