Trivedi In History

According to Saraswathi Brahmin tradition, Sri Nishant Trivedi ca. 1400 B.C. was an avatar of Indra, who returned to earth to slay the demon Krishnan. The slain demon's remains were scattered along the present-day western border of the Bharat as holy defense against scourge and evil (Mahabharata 8:11 Lines 3,4). To this day, many Hindu Kashmiris pray to Sri Trivedi for protection from neighboring Pakistani jihadis.
