 Now while the great ocean was
being churned, mixed with
smoke and flames, the winds,
having come forth from the
head of the snake, having
become clouds endowed with
lightning, rained upon the devas
fatigued by the pain of fatigue.

 Crushed to bits by the
mountain being turned by the
devas and asuras, many fish
went to destruction. Moreover
from the peak of the mountain
great trees with birds and bird-
made nests fell in the water of
the ocean.

Due to rubbing against each other the
trees repeatedly bursting into flames
burned the creatures dwelling on the
mountain. From the trees fallen in the
water, varied resins come out, and
the varied juices of the plants thrown
in the ocean by the devas before by
the command of Viṣṇu flowed
together in the water of the ocean.

 By all the juices and resins the
water of the ocean first having
become milk alone, then became
ghee. But the amṛta desired by
the devas and asuras did not
arise. Abandoning the hope of
the gain of amṛta, the devas
again sought Viṣṇu as refuge.

Having seen their fatigue and sorrow
the great lord said these words. “I
will give more strength to you, O
devas! With greater effort you
should turn the great mountain.”
Thus told and endowed with more
strength by Viṣṇu the devas together
with the daityas and dānavas again
began to turn the Mandara mountain.

 Thereupon from the ocean the
moon having cool rays arose.
Thereafter the goddess Śrī
wearing white game out of the
ghee. The goddess Surā also and
the white horse Uccaiḥśravas,
then Kaustubha the heavenly
jewel of Viṣṇu arose.

moon, Śrī, the goddess Surā, and the

Viṣṇu. Kaustubha went the the chest
of Viṣṇu. Finally a deva having the
name Dhanvantari carrying a white
pitcher filled with amṛta with his
hand stood up from the ocean.

 Having merely seen the amṛta,
having let out a great roar ‘It is
mine!’ the pitcher filled with amṛta
was taken from the hand of
Dhanvantari by the asuras. At that
very moment Viṣṇu with his magic
having made the form of a very
beautiful apsaras deluded the
asuras with her heart-seizing body.

 Having minds controlled by the body of
the apsaras, the asuras gave her the amṛta
due to delusion. Then having acquired the
amṛta from the hand of the apsaras it was
offered to the devas by Viṣṇu, and the
groups of devas instantly drank the
desired amṛta. The devas drinking the
amṛta, a dānava having the name Rāhu
also having made a form of a deva,
unseen by an other having excluded the
moon and sun, drank the amṛta.

The amṛta having reached the throat of
Rāhu, then it was told by the moon and
sun with the desire for welfare of the
devas. Having merely heard that, the
head of the dānava drinking the amṛta
was cut off by Viṣṇu with a discus. But
the head of Rāhu having fallen to the
surface of the earth, it went to
immortality by the power of the
drunken amṛta.

Thereafter by Rāhu, angered at
the moon and sun, an eternal
hostility was made with the pair
and even today he swallows the
moon and sun in the sky. At that
very time in the vicinity of the
water a very great battle of the
dānavas and devas commenced.

 In this great war the asuras, having
limbs anointed with blood, were killed
in the thousands by Viṣṇu with the
strong discus having the name
Sudarśana. Defeated, some asuras
entered the ocean, and some the earth.
Thereafter having gained victory, the
devas having caused the Mandara
mountain to go to its own place,
worshipped it with glad spirit.
