The fire that emanated from the face of Aurva burnt even Devaloka. Kṣatriyas as a class came and prostrated before him. The devas came and requested him to abandon his anger and Aurva agreed. The devas picked up the fire sparks from Aurva's face and deposited them in the ocean. From those sparks put in the ocean was born Baḍavāgni alias Aurva.
