Parijata Tree, Indian Celestial Tree
Parijata Tree was a celestial tree produced at the churning of the ocean.

Parijata Tree was a celestial tree produced at the churning of the ocean. Parijata Tree was made from the whirlpool of the deep, the delight of the nymphs of heaven, perfuming the world with its blossoms.

Krishna Uproots the Parijata TreeLord Krishna longing of his wife Satyabhama carried off this tree from the gardens of Indira. Sachi excited Indra to prevent its removal. A conflict ensued between the gods and Krishna, which is described at great length in the Vishnu Purana.

Krishna was victorious, and took the tree to Dwaraka where it was planted in Satyabhama`s garden. When Krishna discarded his mortal body the tree proceeded to heaven again along with the Sudharman palace.
