सुदर्शना

{ sudarśanā }

Puranic Encyclopaedia

SUDARŚANĀ XI   A wife of God Fire. This Sudarśanā was the daughter of Duryodhana, the son of Durjaya of the Ikṣvāku dynasty. The mother of Sudarśanā was Narmadā. It is said that so beautiful a woman as Sudarśanā had never been born. The God Fire was once fascinated by the beauty of Sudarśanā who had been instructed to serve him, and wished to accept her as his wife. So he informed her of his desire. Being of a noble race, she said that a virgin ought to be given away by her parents. The God Fire approached the father of Sudarśanā and informed him of every thing. When he knew that the person who made the request was the God Fire, the king gave his daughter Sudarśanā as wife to the God. (Duryodhana had another name Nīla). In the Purāṇas there is another statement also that Nīla was the ruler of Māhiṣmatī. (See under Duryodhana II and Agni Para 8).
