  • 1ghOra bhUta pati – dArukAraNya satulu – This story refers to Lord Siva taking the form of mendicant beggar (bhikSATana) and quelling the pride of the ascetics of dArukA vana. [Bhikshatana] and [Lord Siva and His Worship] by Swami Sivananda.
  • 2cakOra – Greek partridge (perdix rufa)– fabled to subsist on moon beems; hence ‘an eye drinking the nectar of a moon-like face’ is poetically called cakOra; the eyes of cakOra turn red when they look on poisoned food – source Monier’s Sanskrit Dictionary.
