Then Bhugyu Lâhyâyani asked. 'Yâgñavalkya,' he said, 'we wandered about as students, and came to the house of Patañkala Kâpya. He had a daughter who was possessed by a Gandharva. We asked him, 'Who art thou?' and he (the Gandharva) replied: 'I am Sudhanvan, the Âṅgirasa.' And when we asked him about the ends of the world, we said to him, 'Where were the Pârikshitas? Where then were the Pârikshitas, I ask thee, Yâgñavalkya, where were the Pârikshitas?'
