Reesha, also known as Renuka Devi, was the mother of Lord Parashurama, an incarnation of Lord Vishnu. She was the daughter of King Sahasrarjuna of Haihayas and his wife Sahasrangi. Reesha was a heavenly nymph, who had descended to the earth to marry the king.

Epic period, circa 5th Century BCE

Reesha, or Renuka, was the wife of King Janaka of Videha. She is famous for her unwavering devotion to Lord Shiva and her capacity to maintain celibacy while married. One day, Lord Shiva himself appeared before her in disguise and she recognized him. This was a test of her devotion and she passed it, leading to the birth of Lord Hanuman.
