Sagara Mahārāja did not kill uncivilized men like the Tālajaṅghas, Yavanas, Śakas, Haihayas and Barbaras. Instead, following the order of his guru Aurva, he made dress some of them awkwardly, he shaved some of them clean but allowed them to wear mustaches, he left some of them wearing loose hair, he half-shaved some, he left some without underwear, and he left some without external garments. A series of tribes are listed. By the words of his guru Aurva, they were made to dress in novel ways.
