Satrajit (), also rendered Satrajita, is a Yadava king in Hinduism. He is the father of the goddess Satyabhama, Krishna's third wife. He is described to be a great devotee of Surya, the sun god. He is known for his role in the legend of the Syamantaka jewel. Legend Gaining the Syamantaka The Bhagavata Purana narrates that Satrajit was a great devotee of sun god, Surya. Greatly pleased, Surya offered him the dazzling Syamantaka as a present, which had the power of conferring great wealth upon its owner. When Satrajit wore the jewel, its brilliance was such that he was mistaken as the sun god himself. During a meeting, Krishna asked Satrajit to let King Ugrasena have the jewel, so that it could be used for the good of all. Proud of his possession, Satrajit refused to part with the Syamantaka. Disappearance of the jewel One day, Satrajit's brother, Prasena, borrowed the jewel from Satrajit, and went into a forest for hunting. However, a lion killed him, took the jewel, and went inside a cave. The cave was of Jambavan, the immortal king of the bears. Jambavan killed the lion and took the jewel for himself, offering it to his son as a toy. When he did not hear news of his brother, Satrajit suspected that his brother must have been killed for the jewel, and suspected Krishna of committing the deed. The rumour spread, and Krishna set out to recover the jewel himself in vindication. Recovery and marriage of Satyabhama Learning that Prasena had been slain by a lion, which had in turn been killed by a bear on the side of a mountain, Krishna entered the bear's den. He discovered that the jewel was being used as a toy by a child. Hearing the child's nurse scream at the sight of the intruder, an enraged Jambavan attacked Krishna. They fought for 28 days and nights, before Jambavan finally realised that Krishna was Rama's reincarnation. Awestruck, he glorified Krishna, and offered the Syamantaka, as well as his daughter, Jambavati, in marriage to the deity. Krishna accepted both of them, and offered moksha to the bear king. He summoned Satrajit to a royal assembly, and narrated the tale of the recovery of the Syamantaka. He restored the jewel to the hands of the Yadu king. Deeply ashamed of his accusation, Satrajit decided to offer Krishna the hand of his daughter,
