Devabhāga · deva-bhāga, “the share of the devas”

Devabhāga is a Yādava, a son of Śūra and a younger brother of Vasudeva Ānakadundubhi. He was the father of the great Uddhava.

His family

The Brahma Purāṇa tells that Devamīḍha begot Śūra on Asiknī, and Śūra begot ten heroic sons on Bhojyā. Vasudeva was born first, named Ānakadundubhi because the ānaka and dundubhi drums sounded in the sky at his birth. Śūra’s other sons were Devabhāga, Devaśravas, Anādhṛshṭi, Kanavaka, Vatsavān, Gṛñjama, Śyāma, Śamīka and Gaṇḍūsha, and his five daughters were Pṛthukīrti, Pṛthā, Śrutadevā, Śrutaśravā and Rājādhidevī. To Devabhāga was born the great Uddhava.
