Kumārila displays great ingenuity in explaining away most of these transgressions by plausible and specious arguments, by relying on the great *tapas* in some cases (such as about Viśvāmitra) and in some cases by downright denial (as in the case of Subhadrā being the sister of Kṛṣṇa).²⁰⁹¹ Those interested may refer for all these instances and their explanations by Kumārila to H. of Dh. Vol. III. pp. 845–848.
