通过玛丽莎（Māriṣā），舒罗王生下十位无垢的儿子：婆苏提婆（Vasudeva）、提婆婆伽（Devabhāga）、提婆舍罗婆（Devaśravā）、阿那迦（Ānaka）、斯仁阇耶（Sṛñjaya）、夏摩迦（Śyāmaka）、康迦（Kaṅka）、舍弥迦（Śamīka）、伐蹉迦（Vatsaka）与弗利迦（Vṛka）。婆苏提婆诞生之时，天界诸天击响圣鼓；又因他成为至上人格神——圣主哈利·克里希纳（Śrī Hari Kṛṣṇa）降临的清净依处，故亦称“阿那迦敦杜毗”（Ānakadundubhi）。舒罗王有五位女儿：普丽塔（Pṛthā）、施鲁塔德瓦（Śrutadevā）、施鲁塔吉尔蒂（Śrutakīrti）、施鲁塔施罗瓦（Śrutaśravā）与罗阇阿地德维（Rājādhidevī），皆为婆苏提婆之姊妹。舒罗王将普丽塔赠与无嗣的友人昆蒂（Kuntī），因此普丽塔亦名昆蒂。
FAQs
This verse states that saintly authorities regard Vasudeva as Hari’s ‘sthāna’ because the Supreme Lord later appears in his family—most notably as Śrī Kṛṣṇa, who is born as Vasudeva’s son.
The verse explains that at Ānaka’s birth, dundubhi (kettledrums) resounded; therefore he became known as Ānakadundubhi—“he whose birth was marked by the sound of drums.”
It highlights honoring devotees and saintly families connected to the Lord’s service—cultivating purity (akalmaṣa), respecting sacred lineage and relationships, and seeing God’s arrangement working through family duties and responsibilities.
