Another myth covered by  Google Doodle.

Ne Zha Chinese mythology
“In Chinese mythology, Nezha (哪吒) is a precocious teenage deity who serves as a patron saint of young adults. After gestating in his mother’s womb for three years and six months, Nezha was born with superhuman strength and the ability to speak. His Chinese myth is based off of the Hindu god, Nalakuvara.” What similarities does Nezha share with the Hindu god Nalakurva? It’s said that Nalakūvara often appears as a sexual trickster figure.  Ne Zha had a super long gestation period! Did that bring about his super human powers? But what about his sexual trickster powers?  Interesting.
