OfThe snake Liya, who was suppressed by Lord Krishna, used to live in Yamuna in fear of Garuda, the vehicle of Lord Vishnu. Before that, Kaliya Nag lived with other snakes in Ramanakdweep. Garuda Dev used to go there every day and eat the snakes. Seeing this, all the Naga Bhayavansh gathered one day and came to Garuda and said with compassion, O Garutman! Hello to you, today we have come to request you. You are the vehicle of Lord Vishnu, we are very afraid of you. How will our life continue if you keep eating us like this? Therefore, we request you that in every month someone from among us will come to you separately and you should eat his food. But Garuda Dev asked to come every day instead of every month, which all the snakes accepted due to self-defense. One day when it was the turn of Kaliya Naag, he refused to eat Garuda Dev and started fighting with Garuda Dev. In the same fight, two of Garuda Dev's wings broke and fell down. At the same time, a peacock and a Neelkantha were born from those wings. That is why these two birds have great importance. It is considered very auspicious to have his darshan on Shukla tenth day of Ashwin month. Due to the huge fight in the month, no one protected Kaliya Nag, so sage Phanishvardev decided to let Kaliya Nag live in a part of Yamuna river without any fear, due to which Kaliya Nag lived in that part of Yamuna river. The name of that part was Kalindi, which is in Vrindavan. Lord Vishnu's vehicle Garuda Dev never went to that part due to the fear of the curse of Rishi Saubhari. Wearing the peacock feather is also a symbol of the simplicity and humility of Shri Krishna.
