That he has a disc like the sun and moon and as that disc is black it is invisible when in the sky except on the occasion of eclipses in virtue of a boon from Brahmā. Others say that he resembles a serpent in shape with his head severed [i.e., vibhakta-aṅga] from his tail; a few that he is bodiless, that he is mere darkness and that he is the son of Siṃhikā. [...]”.
