Bhr̥gu was born again in Vaivasvata Manvantara. This second birth was at the famous Brahmayajña of Varuṇa. He was reborn from fire, as Brahmā’s semen which fell in the sacrificial fire, was brought up by Varuṇa and his wife Carṣaṇī. Consequently Bhr̥gu is referred to as “Varuṇaputra” and “Carṣaṇīputra” in some Purāṇas. Since he was born at Varuṇa’s yāga he is sometimes called “Vāruṇī Bhr̥gu”. - [Previous: c4.2326](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.mani-1975.c4.2326) - [Next: c4.2328](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.mani-1975.c4.2328) - [Up: c4](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.mani-1975.c4) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.mani-1975.c4.2327](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.mani-1975.c4.2327) · Pramāṇa
