Gṛhastha-Vrata

कुछ कालके पश्चात्‌ उसके गर्भसे अग्निके एक पुत्र हुआ जिसका नाम सुदर्शन रखा गया। वह रूपमें पूर्ण चन्द्रमाके समान मनोहर था और उसे बचपनमें ही सर्वस्वरूप सनातन परब्रह्मका ज्ञान हो गया था ।। अथौघवान्‌ नाम नृपो नृगस्थासीत्‌ पितामह: । तस्याथौघवती कन्या पुत्रश्नौघरथो5भवत्‌,उन दिनों राजा नृगके पितामह ओघवान्‌ इस पृथ्वीपर राज्य करते थे। उनके ओघवती नामवाली एक कन्या और ओघरथ नामवाला एक पुत्र था

atha aughavān nāma nṛpo nṛga-sthāsīt pitāmahaḥ | tasyāthaughavatī kanyā putraś caugharatho 'bhavat || (pūrvam: kālāt tasya garbhād agneḥ putraḥ samajāyata, sudarśana iti nāmnā; sa rūpeṇa pūrṇa-candra-samaḥ manoharaḥ, bālye 'pi sarva-svarūpa-sanatana-parabrahma-jñāna-yuktaḥ) ||

Bhīṣma said: After some time, a son of Agni was born from her womb, and he was named Sudarśana. Beautiful like the full moon, he attained—while still a child—knowledge of the eternal Supreme Brahman, the source and essence of all. In those days, a king named Oghavān, the grandfather of Nṛga, ruled the earth. He had a daughter called Oghavatī and a son named Ogharatha.
