Genealogies from Yayāti’s Sons to the Yadu Dynasty; Romapāda–Ṛṣyaśṛṅga; Kārtavīryārjuna; and the Rise of Yādava Branches
वृषसेन: सुतस्तस्य कर्णस्य जगतीपते । द्रुह्योश्च तनयो बभ्रु: सेतुस्तस्यात्मजस्तत: ॥ १४ ॥
vṛṣasenaḥ sutas tasya karṇasya jagatīpate druhyoś ca tanayo babhruḥ setus tasyātmajas tataḥ
O König, Karṇas Sohn war Vṛṣasena. Druhyu, der dritte Sohn Yayātis, hatte einen Sohn namens Babhru, und Babhru hatte einen Sohn, der als Setu bekannt wurde.
This verse states that Vṛṣasena was the son of Karṇa, mentioned while Śukadeva Gosvāmī narrates royal genealogies to King Parīkṣit.
In Canto 9, Śukadeva outlines dynastic lines to connect major historical figures and show how dharma and divine arrangement unfold through generations.
They remind a reader that identity and prestige are temporary, while one should focus on lasting spiritual progress—bhakti and dharma—beyond family lineage.
