Nahush: Birth and Rise

Nahush was grandson of Pururava and born after his father King Ayu performed great penance to Bhagwaan Dattatreya. He was kidnapped by demon Hunda as a toddler because of a prophecy that he will kill Hunda and marry Ashokasundari, the daughter of Bhagwaan Shankar and Mata Parvati, whom Hunda had kidnapped and wanted to marry.

He was rescued by Hunda’s housemaid and left in care of guru Vashishtha. The great rishi raised the boy and made him expert in dharma, vedas and weaponry.

When the boy grew older, he slayed Hunda and married Ashokasundari, fulfilling the prophecy.

Nahush conquered the earth and performed Rajsuya yajna to establish his claim as ruler of entire earth. Due to his greatness, when Indra fled heaven, leaving the throne empty all the rishis and Gods decided to make Nahush, king of Gods bestowing the title on Indra on him.
