JĀBĀLI IV. A hermit. The intensive penance of this hermit compelled Indra to depute the celestial maid Rambhā to hinder it. Jābāli became a prey to the enticement of this heavenly beauty and a daughter was born to them. This damsel was carried away by the King Citrāṅgada. The hermit Jābāli cursed Citrāṅgada to become a leper. (Skanda Purāṇa, Chapters 3, 143, and 144).
