Elsewhere² in the Rigveda he is celebrated as having been blinded by his father for slaying one hundred rams for a she-wolf, and as having been restored to sight by the Aśvins, a legend of quite obscure meaning. - [Previous: v1.c3.s6.26](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.macdonell-keith-1912.v1.c3.s6.26) - [Next: v1.c3.s6.28](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.macdonell-keith-1912.v1.c3.s6.28) - [Up: v1.c3.s6](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.macdonell-keith-1912.v1.c3.s6) ## Linked texts (1) - [Ṛgvedasaṃhitā](https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.samhita.rg) — Sanskrit --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.macdonell-keith-1912.v1.c3.s6.27](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.macdonell-keith-1912.v1.c3.s6.27) · Pramāṇa
