Mura was a very powerful asura (demon) mentioned in Hindu scriptures, who served as a general in Narakasura's army. Narakasura was the evil demon King of Pragjyotisha. And Mura along with his daughter Ahilavati played an important role in defending the Kingdom of Pragjyotisha from invaders.
Biography[edit]
Mura was born to the sage Kashyap and his wife Danu. Once Mura was shocked to see a heap of dead bodies of the asuras and danavas who died in battle against the Devas who were immortal. He became sad and was afraid that he too will die in battle one day. So he did penance for many years to propitiate Lord Brahma who was also his great grandfather. So Brahma appeared before him and offered him a boon.
