महातल

{ mahātala }

Puranic Encyclopaedia

MAHĀTALA   A section of Pātāla. The descendants of the serpent Kadrū live here. These serpents are manyheaded and terrible monsters. Chief among them are Kahaka, Takṣaka, Suṣeṇa, Kāliya and others. All these serpents have long and slender bodies, large hoods and are of very cruel nature. Still they are all afraid of Garuḍa and so live quietly with their families in Mahātala. [Devī Bhāgavata, 8th Skandha] .
