With the daityas dead, Matali turned the chariot back towards the house of Indra. Indra came out to greet Arjuna. Indra and the other Gods blessed Arjuna for his deeds. Indra gave Arjuna many weapons. He gave him a gem that would shine on Arjuna's head called Keereta. Arjuna also got a pair of earrings. Arjuna got the name Kiriti because of the gem. As Arjuna had white horses drawing his chariot, Arjuna also got the name Shwetavahana. Arjuna was also named Vibhatsu as he was able to combat his enemies alone. As he was victorious in battle, he was also called Vijaya. Having the power to use weapons with both hands simultaneously, Arjuna also got the name of Sabyasachi. Having defeated Kubera, the god of wealth, Arjuna was also named Dhananjaya.
In the morning Indra asked Matali to deck the chariot and bring it. Calling Arjuna, Indra said it was time for Arjuna to leave and be united with his brothers. Indra gave many gifts for the Pandavas. Arjuna bowed down at the feet of Indra. Arjuna said Please be on my side when I have to fight Duryodhana.
Indra said he would do that. Yudhistira was an incarnation of Yama (Dharma) and one who caused trouble to such a person would be punished.
Arjuna taking leave of all in the heaven, climbed on the chariot.
Matali brought the chariot near the Himalayas. There Arjuna saw Yudhistira. The brothers were united.
The next day morning, Yudhistira got up early and then asked Arjuna to show the divine weapons that he had got from Indra. Arjuna sat on the ground and gladly displayed the weapons for all to see. The power of the weapons was such that the earth started trembling, The creatures, living inside the earth were terrified. They came to Arjuna and asked him to put back the weapons. Narada then came there and asked Arjuna to put the weapons back.
