Shree Raja Prithu Avatar

The Original Founder of Agriculture and Governance

Introduction: Prithu, son of the tyrant King Vena, is regarded as the first ideal emperor.

Story: When Prithu became king, the people were starving because the Earth had stopped yielding grain. Angered, Prithu raised his bow, and the Earth fled in the form of a cow but finally surrendered to him. Prithu milked her to produce grain and herbs, levelled the land, and taught people farming and the building of cities. The Earth came to be called “Prithvi” after him.

Message: A good ruler is one who cares for the nourishment of his people.
