A daughter of the hermit Gautama. Gautama had two daughters by his wife Ahalyā named Jayantī and Aparājitā besides Jayā. While Dakṣa was performing a yāga, (sacrifice) this Jayā informed Pārvatī of it. Pārvatī fell down when she heard that Dakṣa had not invited Śiva to the sacrifice. Śiva got angry at Dakṣa's negligence and from his wrath the Bhūtaganas such as Virabhadra and others (attendants of Śiva) arose. (Vāmana Purāṇa, Chapter 4). - [Previous: c7.1428](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.mani-1975.c7.1428) - [Next: c7.1430](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.mani-1975.c7.1430) - [Up: c7](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.mani-1975.c7) ## Cites (1) - [Vāmanapurāṇa](https://indike.org/pramana/in.purana.vamana.4) — Vyāsa, Sanskrit --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.mani-1975.c7.1429](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.mani-1975.c7.1429) · Pramāṇa
