Around 5000 BCE...
This was the time when Asuras were defeated;
They loathed the way Devas had treated;
They had to retreat to netherworld;
Losing their control over human world;
Having tasted defeat again;
In quest to take their revenge;
An Asura women did intense penance;
To seek boon that could satisfy her vengeance;
She prayed ‘Om Brahma Devaye Namo Namah’;
Chanting the hymn dedicated to Lord Brahma;
It took years of dedicated tapas so that her voice was heard;
Pleased with her bhakti, He appeared;
Promised to fulfill what she wished;
‘Bless me with a powerful son’ is what she seeked;
He granted her boon;
In due course, Darika was born.
