How did Devraj Indra's liberation from Brahmahatyā became the cause of menstruation in womens ?

After Devāsur Sangram, Devrāj Indrā ruled in Amravati (Indrā Loka), at that time Vishwarupi ji was Purohitā of Indra,Vishwārupi had three heads, he gave a fair share in

the yajna and pujan and satisfy the Devatas as well as humans and asuras.

Then, when Indra came to know that his purohit in his Yajnā used to give the part of the deities of the world in a loud voice, silently speak of the part demons and know one knows about it , which may

hinder the smooth functioning of world and it was his daily work,

Then Indrā understood that "Vishwārupi works for the benefit of asurā's , being the purohit of Devās he give fruits to the asuras. Indra k!lled Vishwaroop in anger, and by these Indra got a sin of Brahmāhatya .,

Now, Indrā, followed by a smoky color and three-headed brahmahatyā, was running behind them to swallow Indra.

she spread white hair and was screaming and a dirty smell comes out from her breath. Devraj Indrā was running due to fear of her but was unable to find shelter anywhere

and went to Mansarovar where he finds a shelter for him , thus living in that lake, he completed three hundred of divine years,

during that time there was chaos in the Swarglokā, and a lot of disasters in the three lokās. , The place where King was suffering from a

big sin like Brahmāhatya , that place automatically becomes a hell .

Seeing the whole world suffering , the Devatās went to Devguru Vrihaspati and narrated the entire story .On hearing this,

Devgurū aimed to end the chaos in the whole world and approached Indra along with

devā's, seeing devgurū and devatas , Indra asked for the path through which he get rid off from this terrible sin, then Brihaspati said that ,in scriptures there is no way to get rid off from sin like Brahmahatyā.

The only way to get free from this Brahmāhatya is the acceptance.

Knowing that Indra felt very sad,.After which, on the suggestion of Narada Muni the devās and Maharis handed over the Singhāsanā of Indrāloka to Chandravanshi King Nahusha, By his knowledge, penance and with the power of his yogā he ruled Swargāloka .

But in influence of ऐश्वर्य and Kaamā he misbehaved with Indra's wife Shachi then the Maharishis made him cursed him by an Tapasvi Brahmin and put him in a Sarpāyoni and gave him the appropriate punishment for his misbehaviour, After which there was chaos all over again,

Then, Brihaspati and the Devās again went to Indra and said that Vishwaroopi had started a yajnā which would surely destroy all the Devās, sages and Tapasvi's etc. So you did this sin in a philanthropic way, so we all here to take you back, after which all devata

and munis decided to divide the doshā of Brahmāhatya into four parts, as well as gave a boon to them for their contribution towards the accomplishment of Devakārya.

Then Brihaspati gave first one to the earth and said that when Srihari Vishnu in his Krishnā avatar touch you

with his lotus feet , then you will be free from this partial sin.

Gave the second to the tree and said that you will be covered with new branches even after being cutt!ng down.

Gave the third to water and said, I give a boon that, the creatures living in the pasture world

get purity from the water.

The fourth part was given to the women and said, this part of the Brahmahatyā approved by you will give auspicious results for future generations and also for others, you will get pleasure of Kaamā according to your will.

After which Indra went to

his people and there was great celebration and immense joy in the minds of the entire residents.

And iin this way the liberation of Indrā became the cause of menstruation in womens.
