Viṣṇu purāṇa(毘濕奴往世書)Book1-Chapter X(第一冊-第十章) - The descendants of the daughters of Daksa married to the Rsis(逹剎的女兒嫁給了Rsis的後裔)

Maitreya said:—

Thou hast narrated to me, great Muni, all that I asked of thee: now resume the account of the creation subsequently to Bhrigu.

彌勒說：

「偉大的牟尼，您已經向我講述了我向您提出的一切要求：現在請從Bhrigu(婆利古聖人)繼續講述創造的故事。」

Parāśara said:—

Lakṣmī, the bride of Viṣṇu, was the daughter of Bhrigu by Khyāti. They had also two sons, Dhātri and Vidhātri, who married the two daughters of the illustrious Meru, Āyati and Niryati; and had by them each a son, named Prāṇa and Mrikaṇḍa. The son of the latter was Mārkaṇḍeya, from whom Vedaśiras was born. The son of Prāṇa was named Dyutimat, and his son was Rājavat; after whom, the race of Bhrigu became infinitely multiplied.

波羅奢羅說：

「Lakṣmī(吉祥天女) 是毘濕奴 (Viṣṇu) 的新娘，也是婆利古聖人(Bhrigu) 與凱亞蒂 (Khyati) 的女兒。婆利古聖人(Bhrigu) 與凱亞蒂 (Khyati)還有兩個兒子Dhātri和Vidhātri，他們娶了著名梅魯（Meru）的兩個女兒Āati和Niryati為妻。他們各生了一個兒子，名叫Prāṇa和Mrikaṇḍa。Mrikaṇḍa的兒子是Mārkṇḍeya，Vedasiras就是從他那裡出生的。Prāṇa的兒子名叫Dyutimat，Dyutimat的兒子名叫Rājavat。此後，婆利古聖人(Bhrigu)的種族無限繁衍。

「Sambhūti, the wife of Marīci, gave birth to Paurnamāsa, whose sons were Virajas and Sarvaga. I shall hereafter notice his other descendants, when I give a more particular account of the race of Marīci

「Marīci 的妻子 Sambhūti 生下了 Paurnamāsa，Paurnamāsa 的兒子是 Virajas 和 Sarvaga。當我對Marīci種族進行更具體的描述時，我將聚焦在他的其他後裔

「The wife of Aṅgiras, Smriti, bore daughters named Sinivālī, Kuhu, Rākā, and Anumati (phases of the moon). Anasūyā, the wife of Atri, was the mother of three sinless sons, Soma (the moon), Durvāsas, and the ascetic Dattātreya. Pulastya had, by Prīti, a son called in a former birth, or in the Svāyambhuva Manvantara, Dattoli, who is now known as the sage Agastya. Kṣamā, the wife of the patriarch Pulaha, was the mother of three sons, Karmasa, Arvarīvat, and Sahiṣṇu. The wife of Kratu, Sannati, brought forth the sixty thousand Bālakhilyas, pigmy sages, no bigger than a joint of the thumb, chaste, pious, resplendent as the rays of the sun. Vaśiṣṭha had seven sons by his wife Urjjā, Rajas, Gātra, Ūrddhabāhu, Savana, Anagha, Sutapas, and Śukra, the seven pure sages. The Agni named Abhimānī, who is the eldest born of Brahmā, had, by Svāhā, three sons of surpassing brilliancy, Pāvaka, Pavamāna, and Śuci, who drinks up water: they had forty-five sons, who, with the original son of Brahmā and his three descendants, constitute the forty-nine fires. The progenitors (Pitris), who, as I have mentioned, were created by Brahmā, were the Agniṣvāttas and Varhiṣads; the former being devoid of, and the latter possessed of, fires. By them, Swadhā had two daughters, Menā and Dhāranī, who were both acquainted with theological truth, and both addicted to religious meditation; both accomplished in perfect wisdom, and adorned with all estimable qualities. Thus has been explained the progeny of the daughters of Dakṣa. He who with faith recapitulates the account, shall never want offspring.

「鴦耆羅仙人(Aṅgiras) 的妻子斯姆里蒂(Smriti)生下了幾個女兒，分別是西尼瓦利(Sinivālī)、庫胡(Kuhu)、拉卡(Rākā) 和阿努馬蒂(Anumati )（月）。安納蘇亞(Anasūyā) 是阿特里(Atri) 的妻子，是三個無罪兒子的母親：蘇摩(Soma)（月神）、敝衣仙人(Durvāsas) 和苦行僧Dattātreya。普里蒂（Prīti）有一個兒子，在前世或在毘婆斯婆多•摩奴期（Svāyambhuva Manvantara）中被稱為Dattoli，他現在被稱為聖人投山仙人（Agastya）。克莎瑪(Kṣamā) 是首領 Pulaha 的妻子，也是三個兒子的母親：Karmasa、Arvarīvat 和 Sahiṣṇu。克拉圖(Kratu)的妻子桑那蒂(Sannati)生下了六萬名巴拉克希利亞人(Bālakhilyas)，他們是侏儒聖人，他們的大小只有拇指關節那麼大，貞潔、虔誠，像太陽的光芒一樣燦爛。婆私吒(Vaśiṣṭha)與他的妻子烏爾賈(Urjja) 育有七個兒子，即羅闍(Rajas)、加特拉(Gātra)、斯達巴胡(Ūrddhabahu)、薩瓦納(Savana)、阿那伽(Anagha)、蘇塔帕斯(Sutapas) 和蘇克拉(Sukra)，即七位純潔的聖人。阿耆尼(Agni），名叫Abhimānī，是梵天（Brahmā）的長子，他與娑婆訶（Svāhā）生了三個極其聰明的兒子：Pāvaka、Pavamāna和Śuci，他喝光了水：他們有四十五個兒子。梵天及其三子孫，構成四十九火。正如我所提到的，祖先（Pitris）是由梵天創造的，他們是阿格尼瓦塔（Agniṣvāttas）和瓦希薩德（Varhiṣads）。前者沒有火，後者有火。斯瓦達 (Swadhā) 生了兩個女兒，梅納 (Menā) 和陀羅尼 (Dhāranī)，她們都熟悉神學真理，並且沉迷於宗教冥想。皆以圓滿智慧成就，並具足一切可敬功德。關於達剎(Dakṣa)的女兒們的後代就這樣子解釋了。有信念重述這段話的人，永遠不會想要後代。」
