v2.c31.39.4

Sūramcandra (I, 66–67) argues that Kāśyapa, being the son of Marīci, should be called Mārica, and Kāśyapa, as the son of Mārica Kāśyapa, Mārīci (see Pāṇini 4.1.95). Hemarājaśarman (16), however, held the view (basing himself on Pāṇini 4.1.95 and 96) that both Mārica and Mārīci denote descendants of Marīci. According to R. Śāstrī (431–435) both Kāśyapa and Kāśyapa are either individual or gotra names. Kāśyapa, or several Kāśyapas, are known in Vedic literature, but Marīci is nowhere mentioned there (A.B. Keith, 1976; A.A. Macdonell and A.B. Keith, 1967; Hemarājaśarman 17–19; Thaneswar Sarmah, 1991). See also: Marīci. 513 The identity of this Mārica is problematic. Gaṅgādhara reads (in his ed. of and commentary on the Carakasamhitā) Kāśyapa Bhṛgu (without separating the two names), Kāśyapa, and Mārīci; Kāśyapa Bhṛgu is in his opinion Bhṛgu of Kāśyapagotra. Hemarājaśarman (15–16) reads Mārīci instead of Mārica. 514 According to another interpretation (adopted by Hemarājaśarman, 16; G. Mukhopadhyaya, HIM I, 178–179 and II, 276), which separates Mārīci and Kāśyapa, this view is held by Mārīci, while the statement that follows, usually attributed to Dhanvantari, belongs to Kāśyapa. Hemarājaśarman defends this view by pointing out that the thesis of the simultaneous formation of all the parts of the embryo (usually attributed to Dhanvantari) agrees with the Kāśyapasamhitā (p.70), but, as already shown by Atrideva (ABI 489), it is also upheld by Dhanvantari (in the Suśrutasamhitā;
