مگر ستیہ وتی نے نرم اور پُرسکون باتوں سے بھارگو رِچیک مُنی کو راضی کیا اور عرض کیا کہ “ایسا نہ ہو۔” رِچیک نے کہا، “تو پھر تمہارا پوتا کشتری جذبے والا ہوگا۔” یوں ستیہ وتی کے بیٹے کے طور پر جمدگنی پیدا ہوئے۔
The great sage Ṛcīka was very angry, but somehow or other Satyavatī pacified him, and at her request he changed his mind. It is indicated here that the son of Jamadagni would be born as Paraśurāma.
