ABHAYAM   King Idhmajihva divided his kingdom Plakṣadvīpa into seven parts and gave them to his seven sons. Abhayam is one of the parts. The other six parts are:--Śivaṁ, Yamasaṁ, Subhadraṁ, Śāntaṁ, Kṣemaṁ and Amṛtaṁ. See “Idhmajihva”. [Bhāgavata, 5th Skandha, Chapter 20, Verse 2] . It is seen [from M.B. Sabhā Parva, Chapter 30, Verse 9] that the territory known as Abhayam was conquered by Bhīmasena. (See Foot-note)
