He commanded the Raksasa Prahasta (to guard) the Eastern gate; and the exceedingly powerful Mahaparsva and Mahodara (to guard) the Southern gate; and he ordered his son Indrajit, possessing mighty powers of illusion, girt by innumerable Räkșasas, to guard the Western gate.
व्यादिदेश च पूर्वस्यां प्रहस्तं द्वारि राक्षसम्। दक्षिणस्यां महावीयौँ महापार्श्वमहोदरौ॥ पश्चिमायामथ द्वारि पुत्रमिन्द्रजितं तदा। व्यादिदेश महामायं राक्षसैर्बहुभिर्वृतम्॥
