in the excerpt mentioned above in garud puran

it says

lakshmi blessed varuni to be wife of shesh

it explicitly mentioned

as

balaram is part incarnate of vishnu

in the similar way

revati is part incarnate of lakshmi

check page 294 and pg 295

Got it. Thanks for pointing it out. With each book writing a different version, it does get confusing...

Sesha's wife being refered to as Vaaruni is new to me. I read somewhere that she was named Nagalakshmi and was the personification of the milk ocean Lord Vishnu resides on.

I am still confused over Adisesha stabilizing the Earth... And being in Vaikuntha as Lord Vishnu's bed... Very similar to Vasuki being around Lord Shiva's neck and being the king of Nagas. Also like Chandra adorning Lord Shiva's matted locks and being a part of the sky...

From this text it seems like there are 3 forms of Sesha's wife... Maybe like Goddess Lakshmi having 8 forms as AshtaLakshmi.

So according to this text, Balarama had 3 wives... Revati, Vaaruni and Sauparna (Interestingly, Suparna is another name of Garuda... I wonder who this maiden is...).

By the way, Revati was from Kritha/Sathya Yuga if I am not mistaken...

(I am pretty sure he had many more... The numbers mentioned in some texts are pretty much twice that of Krishna's wives... Prisoners of Narakasura included...)

By the way Sulochana, Indrajit's wife, was supposed to be Adisesha and Nagalakshmi's daughter. I still have no clue she met and married Meghanada. Kaakbushundi Ramayan did extrapolate the story as a beautiful romance but pretty much made Adisesha/Vasuki as the villain there...
