HE is sixth incarnation of Lord Vishnu and born to mother Renuka and father Rushi Jamadagni. He always carries Axe (Parashu) in the hand. Parashurama is also called Brahmakshatriya (“warrior Brahman”), the first warrior saint.

HE gained prominence by bringing his mother, Renuka back to life after attaining a boon from his father, Jamadagni – who ordered her being killed.

He proved his affection and devotion to both his parents – by one hand obeying his father’s orders and then exploiting the situation by asking for his mother to be brought back to life. Parshuram’s father, Jamadagni was later killed by King Kartavirtya Sahashrarjun. So incensed was Parshuram by his father’s premature death that he set out to eliminate all kshatriyas from earth.
