1) Ā徱ٲⲹ (आदित्यप्रभ) is the name of the king of Śrīkaṇṭha, according to the Kathāsaritsāgara, chapter 20. His story was told by Yaugandharāyaṇa to king Udayana in order to demonstrate that a sensible man will not injure one who treats him well, for whoever does, will find that it turns out unfortunately for himself.

2) Ā徱ٲⲹ (आदित्यप्रभ) is one of the two wifes of Padmasena: one of the two sons of the Vidyādhara king Muktasenā, according to the Kathāsaritsāgara, chapter 42. Accordingly, as Indīvarasena said to king Parityāgasena after remembering his former live: �... then a maiden, named Ā徱ٲⲹ, the daughter of a chief of the Vidyādharas, of her own accord, out of love, chose Padmasena for her husband. Hearing of that, a Vidyādhara maiden, of the name of Candravatī, became love-sick also, and came and chose him for her husband�.

The story of Ā徱ٲⲹ and Padmasena was narrated by Gomukha to Naravāhanahatta in order to demonstrate that “the great must endure great pains and gain great glory, but others have little pain and little glory�.

The Kathāsaritsāgara (‘ocean of streams of story�), mentioning Ā徱ٲⲹ, is a famous Sanskrit epic story revolving around prince Naravāhanadatta and his quest to become the emperor of the 󲹰 (celestial beings). The work is said to have been an adaptation of Guṇāḍhya’s Bṛhatkathā consisting of 100,000 verses, which in turn is part of a larger work containing 700,000 verses.
