Shloka 32
अग्नीषोमोत्पत्तिः
Agni–Soma Origin and the Brahmāgnīṣomīya Doctrine
तत्र देवगणा: साध्या महा भूता महाबला: । तेषामप्यभवत् पुत्र: समानो नाम दुर्जय:,“पृथ्वी और आकाशमें जो महाबली और महान् भूत-स्वरूप साध्य नामक देवगण अदृश्यभावसे रहते हैं, उनके दुर्जय पुत्रका नाम है समान
tatra devagaṇāḥ sādhya mahābhūtā mahābalāḥ | teṣām apy abhavat putraḥ samāno nāma durjayaḥ ||
भीष्म म्हणाले—“तेथे ‘साध्य’ नावाचे देवगण वास करतात—ते महाबली, महाभूत-स्वरूप, सूक्ष्म व अदृश्य आहेत. त्यांच्यातच एक दुर्जय पुत्र उत्पन्न झाला; त्याचे नाव समान.”

Educational Q&A
The verse situates human discourse within a wider cosmic order: even subtle divine classes (the Sādhyas) have lineages and distinguished figures. It underscores that power and eminence exist across many planes of being, not only among humans.
Bhīṣma continues a cosmological-genealogical description, identifying a class of deities called the Sādhyas and naming their notable son Samāna, characterized as ‘Durjaya’—difficult to conquer.
