He destroyed the Bhoja kings in battle, and carried off Rukminī for his bride. He destroyed the Gāndhāras, vanquished the sons of Nagnajit, and released King Su-darsana, whom they had bound. He slew Pāndya with the fragment of a door, and crushed the Kalingas in Dantakūra. Through him the burnt city of Benares was restored. He killed Ekalavya, king of the Nishādas, and the demon Jambha. With the aid of Bala-rāma he killed Su-nāman, the wicked son of Ugrasena, and restored the kingdom to the latter. He conquered the flying city of Saubha and the king of the Sālwas, and there he obtained the fiery weapon Sata-ghnī. Naraka, son of the earth, had carried off the beautiful jewelled earrings of Aditi to Prāg-jyotisha, the impregnable castle of the Asuras. The gods, headed by Indra, were unable to prevail against Naraka, so they appointed Krishna to slay him. Accordingly he killed Muru and the Rākshasa Ogha; and finally he slew Naraka and brought back the earrings. - [Previous: c5.899](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.dowson-1879.c5.899) - [Next: c5.901](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.dowson-1879.c5.901) - [Up: c5](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.dowson-1879.c5) ## Linked texts (1) - [Mahābhārata](https://indike.org/pramana/in.lit.mahabharata.vyasa) — Vyāsa, Sanskrit --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.dowson-1879.c5.900](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.dowson-1879.c5.900) · Pramāṇa
