    Arrow What about Upendra?

    In a book named Srimad Bhagavatamrita I read about a god named Upendra, but I couldn't find anything on the net. Please give me some information about Upendra.

    By "Upendra" any younger brother of Indra is meant. As Vishnu took an avatar as Vamana through the womb of Mother Aditi and as a younger brother of Indra, He is referred to as Upendra.

    Vishnu is called upendra because he helped Indra fight the snake vrtra
