This is an episode from the Mahabharatha when the Pandavas and their queen Draupadi lived in exile in the forest. At the request of Draupadi Bheema sets out to fetch saugandhika the celestial flower. On his way he encounters an old monkey obstructing his path. The proud Bheema orders the monkey to get out of his way in anger. The monkey refuses to move and Bheema tries to lift his tail and fails in his attempt. To the humbled and perplexed Bheema the monkey reveals himself as Hanuman his eldest brother. Hanuman gives him his blessings.
