[edit] Virabhadra

removed this sentence

"Vīrabhadra defeated Vishnu and Brahma in the war against Daksha." is incorrect as srimad bhagawatam doesnt contain this. http://vedabase.net/sb/4/5/en2

Also pUshan was referred to as Sun God ; Defeating of indra is mentioned; removed these references as well as SB doesnt contain these.

[edit] Vīrabhadra Destroyed Daksha

This sentence doesnt belong here. "However, the version given in the Bhagavata purana states that none of the present demigods were able to calm Narasimha's fury, not Siva, not even the consort of Narayana, Laxmi."

[edit] The compromise with Shiva

changed prayed to adviced in following sentence (per bhagawatam http://vedabase.net/sb/4/6/en2 ): "Brahma prayed Shiva to pardon Daksha and to mend the broken limbs of gods and rishis"

[edit] The compromise with Shiva

changed the foll. sentence: (http://vedabase.net/sb/4/7/en2) "Only the unlearned deem myself and Shiva to be distinct; he, I and Brahma are one, assuming different names for creation, preservation, and destruction of the universe. We as the triune Self, prevade all creatures; the wise therefore regard all others as themselves."

removed following as it is infactual and no citations are provided : "Virabhadra is also referred to as Mallikarjuna by Kannadiga Lingayats"
