kimfelix Posted March 23, 2008 Report Share Posted March 23, 2008 In the Valmiki Ramayana it says that he captured Ravana and held him as a prisoner. Then Ravana's father, Pulaha or Pulastya, who was a Brahmin came and begged charity from Kartaviryarjuna. He asked that his son be set free. Kartaviryarjuna was killed by Rama Jamadagneya because of an insult given to his father Jamadagni. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dark Warrior Posted March 23, 2008 Report Share Posted March 23, 2008 One more detail - Karthaveerya Arjuna was a shaktyavesa avatar of Vishnu. He had less power as compared to Parasurama, so he was killed by the latter. Parasurama yielded His powers to the Purna Avatara Raghu Rama later on.
