Ramasura, the one that create thunders, is a demon who uses an axe as his weapon. The story of Ramasura is always associated with Mekla�s. Some say Ramasura originates from Porasurama in the Ten Episodes of Narayana. The sixth episode tells us that Porasurama was a Brahma, a son of ascetic Chomtasanee and Renuka. He had an axe as a weapon. He nearly completed his penance practice at top level, so called Porabrahma. He is quick-tempered so that he was called �Na Yak� which means �Low�. When he faced Pra Rama whom he dare to fight and he later lost to Pra Rama. Pra Rama did not kill him because he was a Brahma. Instead, Pra Rama gave him options whether to shoot an arrow to destroy Makka (the way to the land of civilisation) or Bhola (the land of civilisation which could be succeeded by practising penance). Porasumara chose to destroy the latter one.
