As per ancient Hindu Puranic reference, Brihaspati (Jupiter), the Guru of the Gods had a very beautiful wife named Tara. One day when she was moving in sky near Chandra’s (the Moon’s) house, Moon God (Chandra) fell in love with her immediately, and she also fell in love with him. Brihaspati started to miss Tara and started looking for her. When he found out that she was with Moon God (Chandra), he sent his disciple to bring Tara back. But Tara would not come. Finally, Brihaspati decided to go himself could not persuade Tara to come back to him. This made Brihaspati to become very angry and finally Indra and other deities persuaded Moon God Chandra to return Tara. However, upon Tara’s return to her husband, Brihaspati discovered that she was pregnant who gave birth to Buddha (Mercury Planet). Budha’s son was Pururavas who established the Chandravanshi Dynasty (Lunar Dynasty) in Hindu mythology as shown below.
