अपाला / APĀLĀ. A daughter of the great sage, atri. Suffering from leprosy and hence forsaken by her husband apālā stayed with her father and started tapas to please indra. One day, on her way home from the river, apālā tasted the soma which was meant to be offered to indra and hearing the sound produced then Devendra appeared before apālā. She gave the soma to indra, who was so pleased with her that he cured her of her leprosy. (ṛgveda, 8-91).
