TWELVE LABOURS OF HERAKLES

Greek Hero Hercules ( Herakles) accomplished twelve labours when he was in the service of King Eurystheus of Tiryns; several of these resemble Lord Krishna’s Leelas :-
1.The Nemean Lion
Herakles was ordered to kill a lion which was terrorizing the Land of Nemea. No weapon could penetrate its hide. He used his club and killed it. He then skinned the lion with its own claws and donned the pelt to render himself invulnerable.
2.The Lernean Hydra
He was sent to kill the nine headed snake or dragon Hydra in the swamp near Lerna When he chopped off one head two grew up. His Iolus helped him to kill it. It is similar to Kaliya mardhana of Lord Krishna.
3. The Cerynean Hind
Herakles was asked to capture this beast. It had golden horns and bronze hooves. It was sacred to goddess Artemis. After a yeas chase he caught and injured it. To escape the goddess’ anger, he blamed King Eurystheus for its injury.
4.The Erymanthian Boar
The hero had to bring this monstrous boar back home. He captured it and sent to Tiryns. King Eurystheus was scared to look at it and so hid it in an urn.
5. The Augean Stables
Herakles was asked to clean the stables in one day.. he succeeded in cleaning it by diverting the rivers into stable. It is similar to Krishna lifting the Govardhana Giri.
6. The Stymphalian Birds
Heracles was ordered to get rid of the monstrous man eating birds with iron claws. They were living in Lake Stymphalos; He first scared them and shot one by one with his bow.
7.The Cretan Bull
Eurystheus sent Herakles to Crete island to capture a bull that was terrorizing the island. The hero caught the bull and took it to Greece.
8.The Mare of Diomedes
Diomedes , King of Bitones owned vicious mares and he fed them with the flesh of strangers. Herakles went to Thrace and killed Diomedes and fed the mares with his flesh. He tamed them and took them to his king.
9. The Girdle of Hippolyte
Hippolyte was the queen of Amazons, who wore a beautiful girdle. Herakles was sent to fetch it for Eurytheus’ daughter. He slew Hippolyte and took the girdle from her body
10.The Cattle of Geryon
Herakles borrowed the cu of Helios, the sun and sailed to Gerion beyond Spain. There he killed the three bodied monster.
11.The Apples of the Hesperides
Hesperides was the nymph who raised a tree with golden apples. Herakles killed the dragon called Ladon who guarded the tree. He took the golden apples.
12.The Descent to the Underworld
Cerberus was the three headed dog which guarded the gates of the underworld. Herakles after a great struggle dragged it to his king Eurystheus and then sent it back to the Underworld.
