The place where सुद्युम्न got changed into a woman. When once सनक and other sages went to कुमारवन to see शिव he was seated there with पार्वती on his lap. Seeing the sages पार्वती got angry and cursed that men who entered the forest in future would be turned into women. सुद्युम्न went to hunt in the forest ignorant of this curse, and as soon as he set foot in the forest he was turned into a woman. पुरूरवस् was the son born to this woman by बुध . (Devī Bhāgavata, 1st Skandha) .
