The Mahabharata of Krishna-Dwaipayana Vyasa Translated into English Prose, Vana Parva, Part 2

Note 28 — SECTION CCCXIII

Kisari Mohan Ganguli translation

Footnote 28:(return) In Hindu Mythology there are no gods who destroy sacrifices. It is only the Asuras who do so. The Burdwan translator renders this passage,—"fifteen other gods belonging to western nations or Asuras." It is noticeable that the beings that were denounced as Asuras by the Hindus were worshipped as Gods (Asuras) by the followers of Zarathustra.
