Agni–Soma Origin and the Brahmāgnīṣomīya Doctrine
तत्र देवगणा: साध्या महा भूता महाबला: । तेषामप्यभवत् पुत्र: समानो नाम दुर्जय:,“पृथ्वी और आकाशमें जो महाबली और महान् भूत-स्वरूप साध्य नामक देवगण अदृश्यभावसे रहते हैं, उनके दुर्जय पुत्रका नाम है समान
tatra devagaṇāḥ sādhya mahābhūtā mahābalāḥ | teṣām apy abhavat putraḥ samāno nāma durjayaḥ ||
ভীষ্ম বললেন—“সেখানে ‘সাধ্য’ নামে দেবগণ বাস করেন—তাঁরা মহাবলশালী, মহাভূত-স্বরূপ, সূক্ষ্ম ও অদৃশ্য। তাঁদের মধ্যেই এক দুর্জয় পুত্র জন্মেছিল; তার নাম সমান।”

The verse situates human discourse within a wider cosmic order: even subtle divine classes (the Sādhyas) have lineages and distinguished figures. It underscores that power and eminence exist across many planes of being, not only among humans.
Bhīṣma continues a cosmological-genealogical description, identifying a class of deities called the Sādhyas and naming their notable son Samāna, characterized as ‘Durjaya’—difficult to conquer.
