Śaunaka said :—The Devas, on seeing Kacha back with sañjîvanî knowledge, accorded him a most cordial welcome, and after acquiring that supreme knowledge from him, became highly satisfied ; and then having approached Indra, said thus :--“ To-day is the time to show valor, kill thy enemies, O Purandara.” Accepting the request of the Devas, the Maghavan, along with them, set out on his mission and, in the way, He came across a group of women in the forest. He saw those damsels bathing and enjoying themselves, as they do in the pleasure-garden of Kuvera. Then Indra, in the form of a gust of wind, blew away and mixed up their garments.—1-4.
