Karambha

Karambha

Śakuni has other meanings too: see all meanings of Śakuni. Devarāta has other meanings too: see all meanings of Devarāta.

Karambha is a king of the Yādava line that descends from Vidarbha. He is the son of Śakuni and the father of Devarāta.

In the line of Vidarbha

The Brahma Purāṇa traces this line from Vidarbha through Bhīma, Kunti and Dhṛshṭa, bold in battle, whose son Daśārha begot Vyoma. From Vyoma came Jīmūta, Vikṛti, Bhīmaratha, Navaratha and Daśaratha, whose son was Śakuni. Śakuni’s son was Karambha, and Karambha’s son was Devarāta. From Devarāta came Devakshatra, then Vṛddhakshatra, and then Madhu, founder of the line of the Madhus, father of Sattvant.
