Upasunda
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Upasunda (उपसुन्द) was an asura and brother of Sunda. Sunda and Upasunda were two brave and poerful asura princes who performed austerities to please Brahma, who besowed them the boon that nobody else would slay them, other than each other. Later Brahma created a beautiful apsara Tilottama to creat differences within and destroyed them.
