v1.c21.46

The Astāngasamgraha (Sū.1.6) mentions Bharadvāja as one of the sages who received the āyurveda from Indra, but he is not referred to in the Astāngahrdayasamhitā (Sū.1), where Indra transmits the āyurveda to Ātreya directly. The Astāngasamgraha also mentions Bharadvāja as one of the sages and divinities who have to be honoured in the preparation of an eye-salve, called sarvārthasiddhāgada (Sū.8.59).
