Ancient Indian Historical Tradition c21.24

c21.24

² Bṛhaspati is introduced in the fable about Nahuṣa, MBh v, 10, 360 f.; 14, 480. It seems to me from some consideration of the devâsura wars, that the stories of the conflicts between the devas and asuras are based, partly, on religious struggles in the earliest times: cf. p. 68.
