"Khoriphaba" (Meitei: ꯈꯣꯔꯤꯐꯥꯕ) is a God in Meitei religion. He is the son of the sky God Soraren. Legend says he came down from heaven to earth to seek his mother and a lady love.[1] He is best known for having wrestling with Loyalakpa in the sacred festival of Lai Haraoba.[2] During his worship, cooked foods could be offered but devotees are not allowed to offer fish.[3] He is equivalent to Varuna of Hindu mythology.[4]
