കർണ്ണന്റെ ഈ രഹസ്യങ്ങൾ എന്ത് കൊണ്ട് പുറം ലോകം അറിഞ്ഞില്ല. കർണ്ണന്റെ വിജയ ധനുസ്സ് എവിടെ ആണ് ഉള്ളത്

അർജ്ജുനനും കർണ്ണനും തമ്മിൽ നടന്ന കുരുക്ഷേത്ര യുദ്ധം.
   • അർജ്ജുനനും കർണ്ണനും തമ്മിൽ നടന്ന കുരുക്ഷേത...  

Vijaya (Sanskrit:विजय) meaning victory. It was a divine weapon or bow. The bow was created by Vishvakarma, the royal architect of gods or devas for Indra, the ruler of heaven. Lord Indra gifted this bow to Parashurama who later gave Vijaya to his student, Karna.
The bow was created by Vishwakarma, the royal architect of gods. This divine weapon designated as victory was bestowed to Indra, the king of the Devas and the God of lightning.
Lord Shiva instructed Indra to give the bow to Parasurama for the task of combating the evil prevailing in the kshatriyas of the world. On 21 different occasions, when the ruling Kshatriyas began oppressing their subjects and committing sin, Parasurama - armed with the Vijaya bow - hunted them to the brink of extinction, nearly ridding the world of the kshatriyas. Each time, Parasurama donated the territory won from the kshatriyas to Brahmins for re-establishment of order.
According to Mahabharata, Parashurama takes Karna as his student. Since Karna was a worthy student, Parashurama blessed Karna with the Vijaya along with other celestial weapons. Vijaya bow is clearly mentioned only once in Mahabharata, during the Kurukshetra war, on the 17th day, when Karna fought against Arjuna.
The Sanskrit name Vijaya means Victory. This bow is said to give sure victory to the possessor.[citation needed] The string of this bow cannot be broken by any kind of astra or any divine weapon[citation needed]. Vijaya Dhanush is described in certain puranas having a dark colour with bluish hue. Every time an arrow is released from this bow, its twang is said to have produced reverberations akin to rumbling of charged clouds, causing terrible fear on enemies and produces flashes of light, brilliant as lightning, which blinds the enemy. This bow cannot be broken by any weapons or anyone and its so heavy that normal persons cannot even lift it. Every time an arrow is aimed, the energy of the arrow is amplified by multiple times as this bow is charged with sacred mantras. No weapon can harm a warrior who has Vijaya dhanush in his hand. Certain stories mention that the state of Kerala was produced from sea when Lord Parshuram shoot a divine arrow from his divine Vijaya bow, which is not true as Parashuram's primary weapon was Axe or Parashu. He hurled the axe at ocean and thus Varuna retreated to make it dryland for living.
Vijaya Dhanush was the divine weapon of great warrior "Karna". Lord Parshuram gave Vijaya Dhanush to his student Karna. Vijaya was mainly wielded by Lord Parshuram who then gave it to Karna. After the death of Karna in kurukshetra, vijaya is not mentioned in Mahabharata.

The bow Vijaya was specially made by Vishvakarma for Lord Shiva to destroy the city of Tripura built by sons of Tarakasura. Lord Shiva destroyed Tripura by firing Pashupatastra from Vijaya. Later, Lord Siva gave this bow for safekeeping to Lord Indra, who frequently wielded the bow in his fights with the Asuras. The Asuras feared the bow due to its destructive abilities.
Lord Shiva instructed Indra to give the bow to Parasurama for the task of combating the evil prevailing in the kshatriyas of the world. On 21 different occasions, when the ruling Kshatriyas (the martial caste) began oppressing their subjects and committing sin, Parasurama - armed with the Vijaya bow - hunted them to the brink of extinction, nearly ridding the world of the kshatriyas. Each time, Parasurama donated the territory won from the kshatriyas to Brahmins for re-establishment of order.

HOW KARNA GOT THE VIJAYA
Parasurama takes Karna as his student, as told in the Mahabharatha. Since Karna was a diligent and worthy student, Parasurama blessed Karna with the Vijaya along with other celestial weapons. Vijaya bow is clearly mentioned only once in Mahabharata, during the Kurukshetra war, on the 17th day, when he fought against Arjuna (who was using the Gandiva). Vijaya bow is more associated with Parshuram who wielded it in all his major battles when he got rid of the Kshatriyas from earth 21 times.
The string of this bow cannot be broken by any kind of astra or any divine weapon. Vijaya Dhanush is described in certain puranas having a dark colour with bluish hue. When Lord Prashuram wielded Vijaya Dhanush, its twang is said to have produced reverberations akin to rumbling of charged clouds. Certain stories mention that the state of Kerala was produced from Sea when Lord Parshuram shoot a divine arrow from his divine Vijaya bow.

Karna used the bow only once in his life during the Kurukshetra war. Krishna warned Arjuna on the 16th day of the war, not to underestimate Karna.

Using this bow, Karna overpowered Arjuna on the 16th day of the war. Realising that Karna with the Vijaya bow is invincible, on the 17th day, Krishna advised Arjuna to kill Karna, who had relinquished his bow and was busy trying to lift his sunken chariot wheel.
