About Bhagwan Parshuram
The Hari Vansh Purana mentions a King named Kartaveerya Arjun, who used to rule Mahishmati Nagri in Central India. Along with other Kshatriyas, he indulged in destructive acts that made life difficult for commoners. Thus, Goddess Earth invoked Lord Vishnu to save living beings from the cruelties of Kshatriyas. To help the goddess, Lord Vishnu reincarnated as the son of Renuka and Jamdagani. The son, a warrior named Parshuram defeated the king and Kshatriyas to free the Earth from their violence and brutality. Thus, peace was restored.
Legend has it that Lord Parshuram got his parshu (axe) from Lord Shiva, of whom he was an ardent devotee. It is also said that Lord Parshuram created the western part of Indian coastal land, including the states of Goa, Karnataka, Kerala and Maharashtra, as we know them today.
