The Lineage of ADHARM(Immortality, unrighteousness, wrongdoing, injustice etc)

Lord Brahma is known to be the creator of the universe and at the same time he was also given the responsibility of the evolution of the universe by the almighty Lord Narayan. In the process of evolution he became the father of many Brahmarshi, Devarshi and Maharishi. Adharm (immortality, unrighteousness, injustice,lie, wrongdoing etc) was also the son of Brahma. He married Mrusha and became the father of Dambh (दंभ,ego) and Maya (माया, illusion). Dambh and Maya were adopted by Nirruti. Dambh and Maya produced Lobh (लोभ,greed) and Nikruti (शठता). From them Anger (क्रोध) and Violence (हिंसा) took birth. Anger and Violence produced Kali (कली, quarrel, fight etc) and Durukti (गाली,abuse,rebuke,scold, insult etc). Kali and Durukti produced Fear (भय) and Death (मृत्यु). Kali and Death produced Yatana (यातना,torment, agony, suffering etc) and Niraya (नर्क,hell). All the above evils became the reason for the destruction of the world. All the creatures of the universe become the victim of the above evils today or tomorrow. When the evils become invincible and spread their descendants inside the human population, the process of dissolution of the universe starts and ultimately the universe dissolves into the divine body of Lord Narayan to emerge again.
