14. Now the description of the māhātmya of Kumāranātha; in that context, the commencement of the account of Kumāra's deeds; therein, the birth of a son named Vajrāṅga to Dakṣa's daughter named Diti; Vajrāṅga, by the command of his mother, goes to heaven, drags the lord of the gods by his foot, and brings him near the sun; then, at the request of Brahmā and Kaśyapa, Vajrāṅga releases Vāsava; then, by the command of Brahmā, Vajrāṅga undertakes austerity; while Vajrāṅga is engaged in austerity, his wife named Varāṅgī, intent solely on his service, is severely mocked by Śakra through the display of various terrors; then Vajrāṅga, having obtained a boon from Brahmā and returned from his austerity, asks a question desiring to know the cause of the terror of his wife named Varāṅgī. .. 103 1
