v2.c4.s3.209

2. Bhujyu is the name of a man, son of Tugra, who is repeatedly mentioned in the Rigveda¹ as saved from the deep by the Aśvins. According to Bühler,² the passages refer to Bhujyu being saved from shipwreck during a voyage in the Indian Ocean, but the evidence is inadequate to support this conclusion. *Cf.* Samudra.
