Go to Hindu mythology home page ParashuramaSixth of the 10 avatara (incarnations) of the Hindu god Vishnu. The Mahabharata (“Great Epic of the Bharata Dynasty”) and the Puranas (“Historic Lore”) file that Parashurama was born to the Brahman sage Jamadagni as a way to ship the world from the conceited oppression of the baron or warrior caste, the Kshattriyas. He killed all of the male Kshattriyas on earth 21 successive instances (each time their wives survived and gave beginning to new generations) and filled 5 lakes with blood. Scholars view the legend as reflecting strife between the two courses of society in pre-Buddhist India. Parashurama is the traditional founder of Malabar and is claimed to have bestowed land there on members of the priestly caste whom he introduced down from the north as a way to expiate his slaughter of the Kshattriyas. He is sometimes mentioned to have lived on earth throughout the lifetime of the seventh avatara, Rama, and to have expressed some jealousy of the youthful incarnation. |
