Svarbhanu : ウィキペディア英語版
Svarbhānu
Svarbhānu or Swarbhanu (literally "Splendour of Radiance") is a Hindu Asura (demon) traditionally held responsible for solar eclipses in Vedic mythology. The name is also used as an attribute of the demon Rahu in Puranic mythology,〔 who is also connected to solar eclipses.
==Mythology==
Svarbhānu is described as an asura twice in the Family Books of the ''Rig Veda''. Svarbhānu is described to strike the Sun with darkness, overshadowing the sun with darkness.〔(Mitchiner 1982, p. 258 )〕 Stella Kramrisch considers this act as Svarbhānu as a deity greater than the sun.〔 The Rig veda further narrates after this, the king of heaven - Indra struck down Svarbhānu and sage Atri found the hidden sun and replaced it in the sky.〔 Svarbhanu again appears in the black ''Yajurveda'' and the ''Brahmana''s.〔 According to the ''Brahmana''s, Svarbhānu with darkness pierced Āditya (the Sun), whom, however, the gods set free by means of ''svara'' (accents).〔''Jaiminīya Brāhmaṇa'' 2:386; ''Maitrāyaṇi Brāhmaṇa'' 4:5:2〕
An assistant of Shukra, the teacher of the asuras and god of the planet Venus, was Svarbhānu, who quaffed the amrita proffered by Mohini, thereby achieving immortality as two beings : his head as Rahu, his body's trunk as Ketu.〔(Chander 2000, p. 2 )〕
According to the ''Mahabharata'', Svarbhānu is described to incarnate as Ugrasena, though here, Svarbhānu denotes Rahu. The Sun god Surya is also described by the attribute the "enemy of Svarbhānu".〔("Sambhava" parvan, Section LXVII )〕 Svarbhānu is described to strike both the sun and moon with arrows, the celestial bodies are revived by Atri as in the Rigveda.〔
According to the text ''Hari-vaṃśa'',〔(1:47:52 )〕 Svarbhānu ushered Kalanemi through the galaxy. In a Purana, Svarbhānu is described as son of the goddess Siṃhikā ('Little Lioness').〔(Kāla-Sarpa Yoga )〕
