Varaha
The Puranas complete the full transition of Varaha from the form of Prajapati-Brahma to the avatar of Narayana-Vishnu. The Brahmanda Purana, the Vayu Purana, the Vishnu Purana, the Linga Purana, the Markendeya Purana, the Kurma Purana, the Garuda Purana, the Padma Purana and the Shiva Purana have similar narratives of the cosmogonic myth, wherein Brahma, identified with Narayana-Vishnu, takes the Varaha form to raise the earth from the primeval waters.

Maha
Brahma ‘Maanasa Putra’ Maharshi Marichi approached Lord Brahma to describe

‘beeja’ (seed),

‘lakshana’ (characteristic),
https://freeglobaluniversity.blogspot.com/search/label/Character
‘pramaana’ (means of knowledge / contents),
https://freeglobaluniversity.blogspot.com/search/label/Proof
‘vakta’ (Acharya) and ‘shrota’ ( the Listener)
https://freeglobaluniversity.blogspot.com/search/label/SpeakWriteReadListen
of the main line Puranas which provide the knowledge of the ‘Charaachara Jagat’ or the moveable and immoveable Universe.

Among all the ‘Kalpas’,
https://freeglobaluniversity.blogspot.com/search/label/Kal
there actually was stated to be one Single Purana
https://freeglobaluniversity.blogspot.com/search/label/Sing
comprising one hundred crore ‘Shlokas’ (stanzas)
https://freeglobaluniversity.blogspot.com/search/label/Sloka
with the ‘Four Purusharthas’ of Dharma, Artha, Kama and Mokshas as the ‘bijas’;
https://freeglobaluniversity.blogspot.com/search/label/Goa
Lord Brahma told Maharshi Marichi that basically Bhagavan Vishnu bestowed a Single Purana to him which was of the volume of crores of Shlokas;

Bhagavan Vishnu created Vyasa Muni in each Yugas and the latter in turn condensed the Single Purana with only four lakh Shlokas and distributed it among Eighteen Puranas with varied number of Shlokas among these.
https://freeglobaluniversity.blogspot.com/search/label/Yas
In fact, it is stated that the Single Mother Purana continues to be in position in the Deva Lokas.
https://freeglobaluniversity.blogspot.com/search/label/33Crore
Vyasa selected only four lakh stanzas and disrtibuted these among Eighteen Puranas viz. Brahma Purana, Padma Purana, Vishnu Purana, Vayu Purana, Bhagavat Purana, Narada Purana, Markandya Purana, Agni Purana, Bhavishya Purana, Brahma Vaivartha Purana, Linga Purana, Varaaha Purana, Skanda Purana, Vamana Purana, Kurma Purana, Matsya Purana, Garuda Purana and Brahmaanda Purana.

These were sketched for ‘Loka Kalyan’ and even these highly abridged versions are apparently tough to digest.

It is believed that a person who could read, hear, reproduce, annotate and assimilate all the Eighteen Puranas in full as written by Veda Vyas should have no rebirth into this ‘Samsara’once again.

Jayanta
Jayanta is described to fight in the battle between the gods and asuras (demons) in the Padma Purana.The Harivamsa mentions the battle between Indra and the god Krishna to acquire the celestial tree Parijat from Indra's heaven. Jayanta is described battling Krishna's son Pradyumna and is defeated. In the Skanda Purana, Jayanta is defeated by the asura Surapadman, who is finally killed by the commander-in-chief of the gods, Skanda.
The Vayu Purana narrates a tale wherein Jayanta is cursed and turned into a bamboo. This tale is also told in context of devadasi lore with some variation. Once the sage Agastya arrived in Indra's court and was welcomed by Indra, by organizing a dance performance of the apsara Urvashi. In the performance, Urvashi and Jayanta looked in each other's eyes in love. The distracted Urvashi missed the beat and the dance went haywire. An agitated Agastya cursed Urvashi to be born on earth as a devadasi and Jayanta to be a bamboo tree in the Vindhya mountains. The duo bowed in reverence and prayed for mercy. The sage said that the curse will end when Urvashi will be presented with a talaikole (a bamboo staff, Jayanta) on her dance debut (Arangetram). As ordained, the lovers were released from the curse and returned to heaven, when Urvashi got united with Jayanta as the bamboo staff.
