Nagnajit

नाग्नजित्

Nagnajit is the father of Satyabhama, at whose svayamvara Krishna met the condition set for her hand. At SB 3.3.4 Uddhava says that Krishna subdued 'kakudmato aviddha-nasaH', the humped bulls with unpierced noses, and so married 'nAgnajitIm', the daughter of Nagnajit. Then, though their pride was broken, those ignorant kings who still coveted her He killed Himself, unhurt, with their own weapons.
