Srimad Bhagvata Mahapurana: Book 10: Chapter 58: Verses 56-58


Sri Krsna (next) married Bhadra, a princess of Kekaya, daughter of His father's sister, Srutakirti[1] offered (to Him) by her brothers, the foremost of whom was Santardana. He (further) carried away single-handed, in an assemblage called for self-election of a husband, Laksmana, daughter of the (then) ruler of the Madra territory, endowed with auspicious marks, (even) as Garuda (the king of birds) snatched away (the jar of) nectar (from Indra's paradise). There were other such consorts of Sri Krsna, (all) good-looking and numbering thousands (sixteen thousand) rescued from the captivity of Bhaumasura[2](the son of Mother Earth) after killing him.

Thus ends the fifty-eighth discourse entitled "Sri Krsna's marriage with (the rest of) His

eight principal spouses", in the latter half of Book Ten of the great and glorious

Bhagavata-Purana, otherwise known as the Paramahamsa-Samhita.
