The Yadu–Vṛṣṇi–Andhaka Genealogies and the Purpose of Kṛṣṇa’s Advent
युयुधान: सात्यकिर्वै जयस्तस्य कुणिस्तत: । युगन्धरोऽनमित्रस्य वृष्णि: पुत्रोऽपरस्तत: ॥ १४ ॥
yuyudhānaḥ sātyakir vai jayas tasya kuṇis tataḥ yugandharo ’namitrasya vṛṣṇiḥ putro ’paras tataḥ
萨提亚卡(Satyaka)之子为尤尤达那(Yuyudhāna,亦名萨提亚基Sātyaki),其子为阇耶(Jaya)。由阇耶生库尼(Kuṇi),由库尼生瑜甘达罗(Yugandhara)。阿那密特拉(Anamitra)另有一子名弗里什尼(Vṛṣṇi)。
This verse identifies Yuyudhāna as Sātyaki and places him in the Vṛṣṇi branch of the Yadu dynasty, listing his descendants Jaya and Kuni.
Śukadeva outlines the Yadava genealogies to situate Lord Kṛṣṇa’s earthly pastimes within the sacred lineage of the Yadus and their prominent branches like the Vṛṣṇis.
By seeing how the Bhagavatam links personalities through dharmic lineages, a reader learns to study Krishna-lila with context, respect for tradition, and a clearer map of key devotees and associates.
