In Hinduism
Purana and Itihasa (epic history)
Source: archive.org: Puranic EncyclopediaCaturāsya (चतुरास्य).—A heroic asura. Once he fell in love with Rambhā, and on his request Svayamprabhā, Rambhā’s attendant, won over her mistress to the asura. The asura, Rambhā and Svayamprabhā then shifted their residence to a beautiful palace built in south India by Maya for Caturāsya. But, Indra who felt Rambhā’s absence badly came down to earth, killed Caturāsya and took Rambhā back with him. Indra cursed Svayamprabhā to remain on earth. And, he told her that she should welcome and treat well the monkeys who would be arriving there in their quest of Sītā, and then she would get redemption from the curse. The above facts were revealed by Svayamprabhā herself while welcoming the monkeys. (Kampa Rāmāyaṇa).
