ଶ୍ରୀଶୁକଦେବ ଗୋସ୍ୱାମୀ କହିଲେ—ହେ ରାଜା ପରୀକ୍ଷିତ! ଐଲ ପୁରୂରବଙ୍କୁ ଉର୍ବଶୀଙ୍କ ଗର୍ଭରୁ ଛଅ ପୁତ୍ର ଜନ୍ମିଲେ: ଆୟୁ, ଶ୍ରୁତାୟୁ, ସତ୍ୟାୟୁ, ରୟ, ବିଜୟ ଓ ଜୟ।
This verse states that Purūrava (Aila) and Urvaśī had six sons: Āyu, Śrutāyu, Satyāyu, Raya, Vijaya, and Jaya.
In Canto 9, Śukadeva traces the royal lineages to preserve sacred history and show how dharma, karma, and divine providence unfold through generations of kings.
