Kaṇḍu (I)—a sage engaged in austerities on the banks of the Gomatī, had a daughter through Pramlocā who abandoned the child in the midst of trees and departed. Soma nourished it with nectar, and trees looked after her as their baby. To get rid of the sin Kaṇḍu entered the temple of Puruṣottama and meditated on Keśava Bhā. IV 30 13-14, VI. I. 15 11-54.
