A progenitor and guardian of the world born for the creation of worldly beings¹. Married Prasūti, daughter of Svayambhuva Manu. Had sixteen daughters of whom he gave thirteen to Dharma, one to Agni, one to Pitrs, and one to Śiva³. To the Satra of Viśvasrk Daksa came and was welcomed by all standing, except Brahmā and Śiva. On this Daksa burst into anger against Śiva and insulted him saying he had eyes like a monkey, was a breaker of law and convention, lord of the Bhūtas and Ganas, he then cursed that Śiva should have no more share in sacrifices and went away. Nandi got enraged at this and imprecated a curse on Daksa that he would lose all knowledge of Ātman, and assuming the face of a sheep, would become dull-witted. Bhṛgu then pronounced a counter-curse that those propitiating Śiva shall become Pākhandas³. Appointed by Brahmā as the overlord of all Prajāpatis, Daksa began the sacrifice of Brhaspatisava to which all gods went in groups. Sati also expressed her desire to go and requested permission of Śiva, who reminded her of the insult offered to him⁴. As she was persistent, she was allowed to attend. Going, she found that she was not properly welcomed by her father. The enraged Satī sat facing the northern direction in yoga and cast off her body by means of the fire of Samādhi to the distress of gods and others. On this the Gana followers of Satī attacked Daksa, when Bhrgu created a class of gods, Ṛbhus who vanquished these Ganas⁵. Having heard of all this from Nārada, Śiva grew angry, out of his anger sprang Virabhadra who was ordered to ruin Daksa's sacrifice. The beard of Bhrgu was cut off, and Dakṣa's head was severed from his body and thrown into the Dakṣināgni⁶. The Gods waited upon Brahmā who proceeded to Kailāsa. He conciliated Śiva and pleaded for the revival of Dakṣa and continuation of his Yajña promising a share to him⁷. Śiva agreed but said that Daksa should have the face of the sheep, Bhaga, Mitra's eye, and Bhrgu the beard of a sheep Agreeing to this Brahmā went with Siva to the sacrificial hall of Daksa Now Daksa began to praise Siva When Visnu's offering was poured to secure the continuation of the sacrifice, Visnu presented himself in person when Daksa, Rtviks, Sadasyas, Rudra and others present, spoke in his praise Pleased at this, Hari remarked there was no difference among the Trimurtis Daksa brought the yajña to a successful end.⁸ ### [v2.c7.s2.2](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.dikshitar-1951.v2.c7.s2.2) \*Another account\* ### [v2.c7.s2.3](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.dikshitar-1951.v2.c7.s2.3) Daksa son of Varksi (Mārisā-Vi P) and Pracetas (Prācetasas-Vi P), a Prajāpati He first created the Devas, Asuras, men and others inhabiting the sky, earth and water Finding the creation incomplete, he went to the Vindhyas for tapas by bathing in the Aghamarsana and propitiating Hari with the hymn of hamsaguhya To him the Lord appeared and urged him to marry Asikni, daughter of Pañcajana and thus increase the created beings⁹ Of Asikni he begot 10,000 sons called Haryaśvas The latter proceeded to the western direction to the sacred lake Nārāyanasaras at the estuary of the Indus Purified by the bath and instructed by Nārada on the bondage of Samsāra, these took to the path of 'not returning' (anvartana) Daksa lamented and begot by the same wife a thousand sons, Sabalāśvas These again followed the path trodden by their elder brothers, advised by Nārada The enraged Daksa cursed that Nārada, the corrupter of youth, was ever to be a wanderer and to have no settled home The sage submitted to it without retaliating¹⁰ Consoled by Brahmā, Daksa further begot sixty daughters of Asikni (Vairini-M P) He bestowed ten on Dharma, twelve on Kaśyapa, twenty-seven on Soma, two each for Bhūta, Angiras, and Krśāśva, and the remaining five, of whom only four seem to be named (in v 21) on Tārksyā¹¹ Elsewhere it is said that thirteen daughters were given in marriage to Kaśyapa Went with Brahmā to meet Hiraṇyakaśipu, was present at the anointing of Vāmana; father of Aditi;¹³ cursed Śiva to become Lord of the ghosts and goblins, cursed the Moon god with consumption (yakṣma).¹⁴ Wondered at Mārkaṇḍeya’s vrata,¹⁵ had not yet seen the Supreme Being, identified with Hari.¹⁶ ### [v2.c7.s2.4](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.dikshitar-1951.v2.c7.s2.4) Drank of the Saubhāgya from the thigh of Hari and brought forth a daughter Satī married by Śiva,¹⁷ a Maharṣi, heard the Purāṇa from Brahmā along with other sages,¹⁸ son of Brahmā, married Ūrjā.¹⁹ ### [v2.c7.s2.5](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.dikshitar-1951.v2.c7.s2.5) ¹ Bhā III 12 22-3, Ib II 6 42, 7 6, Br II 32 96, 36 84, Ib III 3 30, 65 21, Ib IV 2 33, 47, M 3 9, 8 4, 154 353, 171 27, 49, Va 25 2, 82, 90, Vi I 22 4, IV 1 6 ² Bhā III 12 56, Ib IV 1 11, 47-9, Vi I 7 19-27, Br I 1 56-64, Ib II 37 38-50, ³ Bhā IV 2 (whole) M 13 11-55, 60, 183 22-3 ⁴ Ib IV 3 (whole) ⁵ Ib IV 4 (whole) ⁶ Ib IV 5 (whole) Va 30 (whole) ⁷ Bha IV 6 (whole) ⁸ Ib IV 7 (whole), 29 42 ⁹ Ib VI 4 (whole), Vi I 15 10, 80-1 ¹⁰ Bhā VI 5 (whole), Vi I 15 82-104 ¹¹ Bhā VI 6 whole, Ib V 5 22, Br III 1 8 and 12, 2 1-31, M 146 15-7, Bhā III 14 12-3, Br III 3 3, 5-55, 8-5 ¹² M 23 15, ¹³ Bha VII 3 14, VIII 23 20, IX 4 54, 1 10 ¹⁴ Ib X 88 32, XI 6 36 ¹⁵ Ib XII 8 12 ¹⁶ Ib IV 29 42, XI 16 15 ¹⁷ M 60 6-7, 10-11, 145 90 ¹⁸ Vi I 2 8 ¹⁹ Ib I 7 5-7 ### [v2.c7.s2.6](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.dikshitar-1951.v2.c7.s2.6) Dakṣa (II)—in previous birth son of Brahmā, now born of Māriṣā and Pracetasas.
