क्रोधवशा / KRODHAVAŚĀ. Wife of prajāpati kaśyapa. (vālmīki rāmāyaṇa, araṇya Kāṇḍa, sarga 14). The Asuras who were born to krodhavaśā are also called Krodhavaśas. Most of these Krodhavaśas were employed to guard the lotus-lake of kubera. (M.B. Vana Parva, Chapter 154). Bhīmasena once entered the lotus-lake of kubera and plucked the “Saugandhika” flower. The Krodhavaśas ran to kubera to inform him of this theft. It is stated in mahābhārata, Vana Parva, Chapter 285, Stanza 2 that these Krodhavaśas were present in the army of rāvaṇa.
