Ashwatthama / Tube / Incarnation / liberates / Next Vyasa

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ashwatthama

Sanjaya to Dhṛtarāṣṭra

in whom
  1. human and 
  2. Varuna and 
  3. Agneya and 
  4. Brahma and 
  5. Aindra and 
  6. Narayana weapons are always present?
The high-souled Drona, having obtained the science of weapons from Rama have imparted (a knowledge of) all the celestial weapons unto his son desirous of seeing the latter adorned with all the accomplishments (of a warrior). 

There is only one person in this world, viz., the son, and none else, whom people desire to become superior to themselves. All high-souled preceptors have this characteristic, viz., that they impart all the mysteries of their science unto either sons or devoted disciples. 

Becoming his sire's pupil. O Sanjaya, and obtaining all those mysteries with every detail, the son of Saradwat's daughter has become a second Drona, and a great hero. Aswatthaman is equal 
  1. to Karna in knowledge of weapons,
  2. to Purandara in battle, 
  3. to Kartavirya in energy, and 
  4. Vrihaspati in wisdom. 
  1. In fortitude, that youth is equal to a mountain, and 
  2. in energy to fire. 
  3. In gravity, he is equal to an ocean, and 
  4. in wrath, to the poison of the snake. 
He is the 
  1. foremost of all car-warriors in battle, 
  2. a firm bowman, and 
  3. above all fatigue. 
  1. In speed he is equal to the wind itself and 
  2. he careens in the thick of fight like Yama in rage. 
  3. While his engaged in shooting arrows in battle, the very earth becomes afflicted. 
  4. Of prowess incapable of being baffled, hero is never fatigued by exertions. 
  5. Purified by the Vedas and by vows, 
  6. he is a thorough master of the science of arms, like Rama, the son of Dasharatha. 
  7. He is like the ocean, incapable of being agitated. 

Arjuna to Yudhistira said, 'He, relying upon whose energy the Kauravas, having addressed themselves to the accomplishment of fierce feats, are blowing their conchs and staying with patience, he about whom thou hast thy doubts. O king, as to who he may be that is roaring so loud, having rallied the Dhartarashtras after the fall of the disarmed preceptor, he, who is

  1. endued with modesty, 
  2. possessed of mighty arms, 
  3. has the tread of an infuriated elephant, 
  4. owns a face like that of a tiger, 
  5. always achieves fierce feats, and dispels the fears of the Kurus, he upon whose birth Drona gave away a thousand kine unto Brahmanas of high worth, he O king, that is roaring so loud, is Aswatthaman. As soon as he was born, that hero neighed like Indra's steed and caused the three worlds to tremble at that sound. Hearing that sound, an invisible being, O lord, (speaking audibly) bestowed upon him the name of Aswatthaman (the horse-voiced). 
  6. That superhuman being who is in that habit of displaying his friendship for all creatures, 
  7. that hero, hearing of the seizure of his sire's locks, will certainly consume us all in battle today.
