Thus he arrived at the bank of the Kāverī, where there was a mountain known as Sahya. There he found a great saintly person who was lying on the ground, covered with dirt and dust, but who was deeply spiritually advanced.

Translation
Prahlāda Mahārāja, the dear servant of the Lord, once went touring the provinces with some of his ministers to study their nature. On the bank of the Kāverī, on a plateau of the Sahya Mountains, he saw a person lying on the ground, covered with dirt, but having pure, profound spiritual radiance. Sahya-sānuni means “on a plateau of the Sahya Mountains.” He had dust on the limbs of his body (tanū-deśaiḥ).
