Narad Muni / नारद मुनि

According to compendium of Hindus, Brahma had seven human sons.
Narad was one of them and became a priest-sage after a hard penance.
He is believed to be one of the dear devotees of Vishnu.
Narad was represented as the messenger between gods and men, bearing a lute.
He was wont to provoke quarrels. Narad had many reincarnations.
It was Narad who discouraged the sons of Daksh from helping in the process of creation, and was cursed by the latter to be born as his son.
Narad was also born as a Devgandharv, the son of Kashyap by his wife Muni.
Once, on a visit to Dwarka, Narad tried to test Krishna. He visited all the 16008 wives of Krishna, and he saw the latter in conversation with each of them.
Narad was filled with wonder that Krishna managed to maintain all his wives.
