Ila / इला
- Ila was the daughter of Manu Vaivasvat and sister of Ikshvaku.
- Vaivasvat and his wife Shraddha had no children for a long time.
- Vaivasvat then had a sacrifice performed by Agastya, to propitiate the Adityas - Mitra and Varun, for a son.
- But instead a daughter was born to him. When Vaivasvat complained to Vasishth, Vasishth immediately converted the daughter into a son by his powers.
- The son was called Sudyumna.
- One day, Sudyumna went with his friends to the Kumar forest, and because of the curse laid on it by Shiv, all those who entered it were turned into women.
- Struck by grief, Sudyumna and his friends stayed for some days in the forest, before they headed back for the palace. Sudyumna was now named Ila. *On the way, Ila met Budh, son of Som by Tara.
- They fell in love with each other and were married.
- Ila bore Budh a child named Pururava. When Ila expressed her displeasure at being turned into a woman to Vasishth, he requested Shiv to turn Ila back into a man.
- Shiv said that Ila would be a man every alternate month, her role alternating with the sex, i.e. in the month when she was a man she would handle the affairs of the kingdom and as a woman she would remain in the inner apartments.
- Hence Ila became both mother and father to Pururava.
