Kāmadambhaka

Kāmadambhaka · kāma-dambhaka, “the deceiver of desire”

Kāmadambhaka is a Yādava of the line of Bhajamāna, a son of Bhadika, son of Svayambhoja. He is the last-named of Bhadika’s ten sons, and a brother of Kṛtavarma and Śatadhanvā.

The Brahma Purāṇa gives the line: Bhajamāna’s son was Vidūratha, his son Rājādhideva, Rājādhideva’s son Śamī, his son Pratikshatra, his son Svayambhoja, and his son Bhadika. Bhadika’s sons were of fearsome valour: Kṛtavarma the eldest, Śatadhanvā the middle one, Devāntaka, Narānta, Bhishak, Paitaruṇa, Sudānta, Atidānta, Nikāśya and Kāmadambhaka.
