ketuḥ], †7388 (Kṛṣṇa becoming Agni burns the world). — § 773d (Çiva): 161, 7486 (Çiva slew the Daityas—in Tripura—"kṛtvā Viṣṇum çarottamam | çalyam Agnim tathā kṛtvā, puṅkham Vaivasvatam Yamam | Vedān kṛtvā dhanuḥ sarvān jyāṃ ca Sāvitrīm uttamām . . ."), 7496 (i.e. Rudra); 162, 7503 (do.). — § 775b (Samvartta-Maruttiya): XIV, 3-10: In the Tretā-yuga (v. 80) king Marutta, who rivalled Indra, intended to celebrate a sacrifice on Meru on the northern side of Himavat. Bṛhaspati had expelled his younger brother Samvartta, and in allegiance to Indra refused to perform sacrifice for his rival Marutta. Nārada then told Marutta to appeal to Samvartta, who was wandering about in the garb of a mad man; he was to prevail upon him to perform his sacrifice, and tell him that Nārada had entered into the fire; Samvartta consented to perform his sacrifice, not from any desire of wealth, but only that he might do what was disagreeable to Indra and Bṛhaspati. Marutta succeeded in obtaining from Çiva the gold on Mṛñjavat, and made arrangements for the sacrifice. Bṛhaspati became sick with jealousy, and Indra therefore despatched Agni to Marutta to say that Bṛhaspati would officiate at his sacrifice and make him immortal, etc. But Marutta answered that he did not desire these things, and Samvartta threatened to burn Agni with his fierce evil (dāruṇena) eyes if he should ever come again. At last Indra himself directed the sacrifice. Indra told Marutta to offer a red bull consecrated to Agni, and a blue with a variegated skin to V.-D. (v. 285); 9, (227), (230), (232), (235), (240), (243), (246), (249). — § 782b (Brāhmaṇagītā): 20, 608 (i.e. the vessel of the body called Piṅgalā, Nil.; cf.

When they had reached the sea of red waters (lauhityam salilārṇavam, v. 33, i.e. udayā-calaprāntastham samudram, Nil.; cf. v. 44 ff.), they beheld Agni in the shape of a man, who requested Arjuna to throw the Gāṇḍīva bow and his couple of inexhaustible quivers into the sea, that they might be made over to Varuṇa, from whom Agni had procured them for the use of Arjuna (v. Khāṇḍavadah.): 35, 38, 43.
