Then, the Lord came to know it to be a devilish freak and keeping His form hidden took the Vajra-astra and hit it on his private part and thus killed that Dânava Virabhadra did not know the destruction of the demon in that way and the Goddess of the mountain seeing the demon thus killed in the form of a woman and not realizing the full situation, sent the news by the messenger Vayu to Pârvatî, when She began to seethe with wrath Her eyes turned red with anger and She felt fearfully agitated in mind and pronounced a curse on Virabhadra—36 39
