Naraka Bhauma

Naraka Bhauma
Naraka Bhauma ("Jordens søn"), søn af Vishnu (i hans vildsvine-Avatara) og Jorden, huserede i Pragjyotisha (i Assam). Han havde blandt andet røvet Aditis øreringe og indespærret 16.100 døtre af guder, konger etcetera i sit palads. Efter Indras tilskyndelse drog Krishna ud og dræbte ham, hvorefter Jorden kom og udleverede øreringene til Krishna, som befriede og ægtede pigerne etcetera.
