GOMANTA I. A famous mountain near Dvārakā. This mountain is known as Goma and Raivataka also. Once Śrī Kṛṣṇa went to Gomanta and on the way met Paraśurāma. (Skandha 10, Bhāgavata). Paraśurāma and Śrī Kṛṣṇa went together and saw this beautiful mountain. Vyāsa has devoted Chapter 40 of Viṣṇu Parva entirely for the description of this mountain of Gomanta. Once Balabhadrārāma caught hold of Jarāsandha on this mountain but let him off.
