Virabhadra - वीरभद्

Virabhadra stems from ancient Hindu lore and the tales of the famous figure Virabhadra, “blessed hero"—which is typically rendered into English as - warrior.

 As you work into each asana, it may help you to invoke Virabhadra. A huge demon warrior, as tall as the sky and as bright as three suns, Virabhadra has thousands of arms equipped with various weapons. Symbolically, he is the ruthless and dispassionate slayer of our inner enemies, and every weapon he carries provides a means to destroy the obstacles to self-realization—like ignorance, delusion, doubt, laziness, and backsliding—all of which prevent us from gaining solid ground and knowing our true Self. When we're tempted to shy away from the difficulty a posture, Virabhadra bellows at us, "Be present! Pay attention! Wake up!"
