When they knew of Subāhu's death they were plunged in sorrow but were glad to know a son of Subāhu, Sagara, had grown up to be a successor to Subāhu. When Garuḍa made Aurva acquainted with the pitiable tale of his sister Aurva decreed that Sumati should marry a Kṣatriya instead of a brahmin and thus tide over the curse. He then asked Sagara to marry Sumati and blessed them saying that Sagara would one day become an emperor and perform an Aśvamedha yāga. Aurva then sent Sagara along with the people to Ayodhyā where Sagara after defeating all his enemies became the emperor of Bhāratavarṣa. (Brahmāṇḍa Purāṇa, Chapters 18-21). - [Previous: c4.1146.5](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.mani-1975.c4.1146.5) - [Next: c4.1148](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.mani-1975.c4.1148) - [Up: c4](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.mani-1975.c4) ## Linked texts (1) - [Brahmāṇḍapurāṇa](https://indike.org/pramana/in.purana.brahmanda) — Vyāsa, Sanskrit --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.mani-1975.c4.1147](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.mani-1975.c4.1147) · Pramāṇa
