An epithet of 艢颈惫补. There is an account in the V膩mana Pur膩峁嘺 behind the name of 闯墨尘耻迟办别迟耻. Once during the summer season, 笔腻谤惫补迟墨 asked her husband 艢颈惫补 how it was possible to protect oneself in this season, from the hot sun and the strong wind, without a house. Then 艢颈惫补 replied that he has no home. He always moves in the forest. 笔腻谤惫补迟墨 spent the summer season with her husband 艢颈惫补 in the shade of trees. Afterthat, the rainy season started and the sky became overcast with clouds. After witnessing the rainy season, 笔腻谤惫补迟墨 again requested her husband for a house. Lord 艢颈惫补 replied to her that he has no wealth to erect a house. He always wears a tiger鈥檚 skin. 艢别峁 is his sacred thread, Padma and 笔颈峁単补濒补 (two serpents) are his ear rings. Kambala (blanket) and 顿丑补苍补帽箩补测补 (a 苍腻驳补) are his bracelets. His wrists are arrayed with two bangles鈥攖he serpent, 础艣惫补迟补谤补 on his right and 罢补办峁办补 on his left. Saying thus, 艢颈惫补 went up on the rising bunch of clouds with 笔腻谤惫补迟墨 and sat there. Those clouds looked like the flag of 艢颈惫补. From that day, 艢颈惫补 was known as 闯墨尘耻迟办别迟耻.[1]
