पुराणम्
English
सुन्द / SUNDA. An asura. He had a brother named Upasunda, and their father was niśumbha alias Jharjha. sunda and Upasunda were very cruel asuras.
The two brothers performed tapas on the vindhya mountain with the object of conquering the three worlds. All attempts made by devas to break up their penance failed and ultimately brahmā appeared before them. They secured from brahmā a boon to the effect that they would not be killed by anyone else but only mutually by them. Swollen-headed by the boon the brothers conquered the three worlds and none could kill them. Ultimately the devas sent tilottamā, the celestial damsel to them and she made them quarrel with each other. Both of them who fell in love with tilottamā and wanted her as wife fought with each other and got killed. (Ādi Parva, Chapter 221, Verse 19). For details see under Upasunda and tāṭakā).
