PAUṆDRAKA II. (Pauṇḍrakavāsudeva). A king of ancient Kārūṣa. Once he sent a messenger to Dvārakā and told Kṛṣṇa thus : "Oh Kṛṣṇa, I am the real Vāsudeva. Therefore put down your royal emblems and robes and come and worship at my feet." As soon as Kṛṣṇa heard it he got angry and moved to Kārūṣa with a large army and killed Pauṇḍrakavāsudeva. 10th Skandha, Bhāgavata).
