Anjana gave birth to a son, who was resplendent. But, she could not celebrate his birthday because she was living in a forest. There was no one even to beat a broken plate 'in the place of a band. She sobbed and wept over her misfortune. Just at this time. Prathisurya was flying through the sky in his vimana (supernatural air-ship). Hearing the cries of lamentation, he landed there.
