Release Date:

Brahmā said, “Then those sages, my sons—Marīci and others who understood my view—gave him suitable names. Dakṣan and others who understood other facts on seeing my face, gave him a suitable place and a wife. The brāhmaṇas Marīci and others, my sons, decided on suitable names for the Being and said thus “Since at your nativity itself you have begun to torment and bedevil our minds and that of Brahmā too, you will be famous in the world as Manmathā. You will be able to assume any form you wish. Hence, O mind-born God, you will be known as Kāma too. There is no one equal to you. Causing elation in others you will be known as Madana. Since you were haughty even as you were born, you will be called Darpaka, and your name Kandarpa will also become popular in the world.
