Asamañjasa-tyāga (Abandoning Asamañjasa) — Sagara-carita Continuation
इति श्रीब्रह्माण्डे महापुराणे वायुप्रोक्ते मध्यमभागे तृतीय उपोद्धातपादे सगरचरिते ऽसमञ्जसत्यागो नामैकपञ्चाशत्तमो ऽध्यायः // ५१// जैमिनिरुवाच त्यक्त्वा पुत्रं स धर्मात्मा सगरः प्रेम तद्गतम् / धर्मशीले तदा वाले चकारांशुमति प्रभुः
iti śrībrahmāṇḍe mahāpurāṇe vāyuprokte madhyamabhāge tṛtīya upoddhātapāde sagaracarite 'samañjasatyāgo nāmaikapañcāśattamo 'dhyāyaḥ // 51// jaiminiruvāca tyaktvā putraṃ sa dharmātmā sagaraḥ prema tadgatam / dharmaśīle tadā vāle cakārāṃśumati prabhuḥ
Thus, in the Śrī Brahmāṇḍa Mahāpurāṇa, in the middle section spoken by Vāyu, within the third introductory division of the Sagara narrative, is the fifty-first chapter called “The Banishment of Asamañjasa.” Jaimini said: having cast off his son, the righteous Sagara set his love where it rightly belonged; then the lordly king bestowed affection upon the virtuous boy Aṃśumān.
