This god unsuccessfully tried to protect the Khandava forest from the hungr
This god unsuccessfully tried to protect the Khandava forest from the hungry Agni, and he was born along with Agni from the mouth of the giant Purusha. With the help of his attendants, the Maruts, he rescued stolen cattle from the demon Vala, and this god rides the four-tusked elephant Airavata. He drank three bowls of soma in preparation for his greatest task involving storming ninety-nine fortresses and slaying a serpent who had stolen the world's water, Vritra. For 10 points, name this wielder of Vajra, the Hindu god of storms.
