VYASAS'
VERSION
The Vanaparva of
Mahabharatha has yet another legend. It narrated that once Devasena was put to
route by Kesin, a dreadful demon of unusual powers. And he carried the Devasena
personified as Lady. Devasena had a sister called Daityasena. They were
Prajapati's daughters. When Brahma was invoked for help by Devendra, he said
that Subrahmanya alone could kill that Danava and promised a valorous life
partner for Devasena, who would become War Lord of the Devaloka. The later story
- Subrahmanya was born to Uma and Maheswar and killing etc. is same as above,
and need not be repeated.
