bhishma

Explanation:

Bhishma (Sanskrit: भीष्‍म, IAST: Bhīṣma) also known as Bhishma Pitamaha and Gangaputra Bhishma[1] was well known for his pledge of celibacy. Originally named as 'Devavrata', he was the eighth son of the Kuru King Shantanu and the river goddess Ganga.[2] Bhishma was blessed with a boon from his father that he could choose the time of his death or he may remain immortal till he desires.[3] He was related to both the Pandavas and the Kauravas through his half-brother, Vichitravirya (Son of Satyavati).[4] He was one of the greatest archers and warriors of his time and was trained by Lord Vishnuś sixth avatar Parshurama . He also handed down the Vishnu Sahasranama to Yudhishtira[5] when he was on his bed of arrows after the battle of Kurukshetra.
