From Timi will come Bṛhadratha; from Bṛhadratha, Sudāsa; and from Sudāsa, Śatānīka. From Śatānīka will come Durdamana, and from him will come a son named Mahīnara.
From Bṛhadratha will come Sudāsa, and from Sudāsa will come Śatānīka.
Personal Guidance
Bṛhadratha, Sudāsa, Śatānīka, Durdamana, Mahīnara — the line keeps coming. Names of the very ordinary continue to appear right next to names of the famous — both go on.
Reflection Questions
