The Boar searches for the earth within the ocean, frees her from bondage, and brings her up from Rasātala to establish her in her proper place. Then, delighted by the divine celebrations performed by the gods, the Boar abides for a long time in the earthly realm alone, sporting and wandering in play with divine apsarases who have appeared in the form of female deer.
