Bhārgava’s Resolve after His Father’s Slaying
Parashurama’s Vow against the Kshatriyas
क्षत्रक्षेत्रेषु भूयश्च क्षत्रमुत्पादितं द्विजैः / निजघान पुनर्भूमौ राज्ञ शतसहस्रशः
kṣatrakṣetreṣu bhūyaśca kṣatramutpāditaṃ dvijaiḥ / nijaghāna punarbhūmau rājña śatasahasraśaḥ
In the kshatriya lands the twice-born brought forth warriors again; and once more upon the earth he slew kings by the hundreds of thousands.
