He is there said to have been expelled by the Sṛñjayas, but to have restored to them their prince Duṣṭarītu despite the opposition of the Kauravya king Balhika Prātipīya.² He must have been a sage rather than a warrior, as the first passage of the Śatapatha Brāhmaṇa¹ shows him in the capacity of a teacher only. \*Cf.\* Sthapati. - [Previous: v1.c3.s14.102](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.macdonell-keith-1912.v1.c3.s14.102) - [Next: v1.c3.s14.104](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.macdonell-keith-1912.v1.c3.s14.104) - [Up: v1.c3.s14](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.macdonell-keith-1912.v1.c3.s14) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.macdonell-keith-1912.v1.c3.s14.103](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.macdonell-keith-1912.v1.c3.s14.103) · Pramāṇa
