Like raktabÄ«ja, every drop of blood that fell from the body of Andhaka created another Asura like him and in no time, the entire world was filled with Andhakas. To destroy the growing number of Andhakas, Rudra created innumerable ²ÑÄå³Ùá¹›kÄå-Åš²¹°ì³Ù¾±²õ [viz., ±Ê°ù²¹³¾´Ç»åÄå]. These Åšaktis of immense power at once began to drink every drop of blood that flowed from the body of Andhaka, but they could still not effectively contain the emergence of more and more demons.
