KĀLEYA(S). A set of Asuras born to the great sage Kaśyapa of his wife Kālā. Some scholars hold the view that the Kālakeyas and the Kāleyas are one and the same. Kāleyas destroyed the Āśramas of sages like Vasiṣṭha, Cyavana and Bharadvāja. (Vana Parva, Chapter 102). Devas killed some of the Kāleyas; the others ran away to Pātāla.
