: archive.org: Shiva Purana - English Translation

貹Բṛt (अपमानकृत�) refers to an “act of offence�, according to the Śivapurāṇa 2.5.15 (“The birth of Jalandhara and his marriage�).—Accordingly, as Bṛhaspati said to the Gods: “O gods, run away, all of you. There is no trace of the great mountain Droṇa. Certainly it has been destroyed by the Asura, the son of the ocean. Jalandhara is a great Asura. He cannot be conquered since he is born of a part of Śiva. He will pound all the gods. His power has been understood by me as he is self-born. O gods, all of you remember the act of offence (貹Բṛt) to Śiva perpetrated by Indra�.
