Summary Skandapura V presents a critical edition of Adhyya s 92-112 from the Skandapura , with an introduction and annotated English synopsis. The text edited in this volume includes the extensive myth of Viu's manifestation as the Boar (Varha), who conquers Hirayka and wins back the Earth for the gods; its aftermath, which involves the birth of Varha's son Vka and Skanda's finishing of Viu's Boar manifestation; Dev's instructions to the goddesses about donations, fasts and penances; and the continuation of the Andhaka cycle. The introduction addresses the incorporation of Vaiava mythology in the text, the composition and revision of Adhyya 112 in the different recensions, and the Dharmanibandha citations of Dev's teachings.
