Dhruva-vaṁśa Continuation: Utkala’s Renunciation, Aṅga’s Sacrifice, and the Birth of Vena
Prelude to Pṛthu
प्रदोषो निशिथो व्युष्ट इति दोषासुतास्त्रय: । व्युष्ट: सुतं पुष्करिण्यां सर्वतेजसमादधे ॥ १४ ॥
pradoṣo niśitho vyuṣṭa iti doṣā-sutās trayaḥ vyuṣṭaḥ sutaṁ puṣkariṇyāṁ sarvatejasam ādadhe
Doṣā memiliki tiga putra: Pradoṣa, Niśitha, dan Vyuṣṭa. Istri Vyuṣṭa bernama Puṣkariṇī, yang melahirkan putra sangat perkasa bernama Sarvatejā.
They are described in Bhagavatam 4.13.14 as the three sons of Doṣā (personified Night), representing twilight, midnight, and dawn.
It states that Vyuṣṭa, through his wife Puṣkariṇī, begot a son named Sarva-tejas, whose name indicates great radiance or splendor.
They train the reader to see time, nature, and dynasties as governed by divine order, fostering humility and remembrance that all beings arise within Bhagavān’s cosmic arrangement.
