QUBJA

  


QUBJA (KUBJA)

Qubja (Kubja) was an ugly woman.  Qubja became a widow in her very childhood, and she spent eight years in observing auspicious ceremonies.  As she took the ‘Maagha bath’ every year, by which she attained salvation.  This was the period when Sundha and Upasundha were harassing the world, and to destroy them, Qubja incarnated as ‘Tilotthamaa’ and hooked them by her excellent beauty.

They fought each other for her hand and got killed.  Brahma was pleased at this and granted Qubja a place in Suryaloka.
