an Indian god whom we find frequently in the company of Ixora (one of the incarnationts of Siva). Nothing is known as to his attributes. His appearance is strange and grotesque: he is small, with an enormous belly; his head is surrounded with snakes; another snake winds itself in manv circles around his legs, chest, and arms; his right hand holds a staff.
