Mārkaṇḍeya spoke:
Being thus exhorted by Brahmā, he then the high-minded replied, “So be it!” and went directing himself to that pursuit. He ceased indeed from austerities. Turning him away from austerities Brahmā addressed him as Cākṣuṣa; formerly he was known by that name; he became famous as Manu Cākṣuṣa.
