Who is Abala?

In the Vedic scriptures, you will find that the forces of nature also have characteristics similar to humans. This is because humans are the only beings fully representing all the aspects of the universe. There are several Agnis. One of them is Panchajanya. He got this name because he was born from the collective energies of five Rishis. Panchajanya had fifteen sons. Abala was one among them.
