  • Vena (Hindu king)

    In Hindu mythology, Vena was a great king. However, he became evil and corrupt. The world became so gloomy and dark that the earth-goddess Bhumidevi decided that she would not provide crops to humans anymore. She took form as a cow and went into hiding. Meanwhile, a group of Rishis killed Vena out of anger. They then rubbed the thigh of his corpse, and took out all the evil from his body. Afterwards they rubbed Vena's arm, and the good Prithu emerged. This being was Vishnu incarnate, and as soon as he was born, Vishnu's Sharanga bow fell from heaven into his hands. However, Bhumidevi still refused to give crops to people. As soon as Prithu, son of Vena, threatened to kill her, she gave in, but in return Prithu would be her eternal guardian. This is why Bhumidevi is also known as Prithvi.

    In the Rigveda (10.123), Vena is a personification of a celestial being, perhaps the rainbow. The name of the hymn is also Vena, as is the name of the author of RV 9.85.

    Vena (album)

    Vena is the fourth studio album by Japanese rock band coldrain, released on October 21, 2015.

    Where We Are Now

    by: Vanna

    I just can't get the ending right.
    I'm so desperate tonight.
    It seems only right to let the shadows lead the way.
    If I could only just decide.
    To let go of my insides.
    I know that I'll never have to feel this way again.
    And I'm caught in between.
    My waking life and dreams.
    Death's just as lonely as before.
    I still remember you when.
    This is all too familiar now.
    I know I've seen this place before. But I just don't recall.
    I don't feel like I'm awake. But I'm not dreaming.
    What was it that I came here for?
    They held us down.
    But now we're breaking loose.
    We swore that we'd let nothing stand in our way.
    And when I'm gone.
    I will come back to haunt you.
    I'll still watch over you my love.
    When you're on your way to me.
    Don't forget the taste of me.
    And don't forget the feel of me.
    With my arms around you.
    Those memories will never fade.
    Like all the promises we made.
    This is all too familiar now.
    I know I've seen this place before. But I just don't recall.
    I don't feel like I'm awake. But I'm not dreaming.
    What was it that I came here for?
    From below. The sun will rise.
    And give us time to clear our heads.
    The end is breathing down my neck.
    Though hope is all that we have left.
    The pain in understanding. Why we can't take it all back.
    It's time to finally let go. Of everything we've known.
    This is all too familiar now.
    I know I've seen this place before. But I just don't recall.
    I don't feel like I'm awake. But I'm not dreaming.
    What was it that I came here for?
    I swear I'll find you before I drift away.
    This is all too familiar now.
    I know I've seen this place before. But I just don't recall.
    I don't feel like I'm awake. But I'm not dreaming.
