Vṛka (Agni)

Vṛka · vṛka, “the seizer”

Vṛka is the name of an agni in the second account of creation in the Brahma Parva. Wishing to create, the Paramātmā brings about the creation of substances. From the mahat-tattva comes Hari, from Hari comes the agni named Vṛka, from that the devatās, and in the same way the whole creation arises.
