v4.c62.307

710 Agastya is mentioned again; he consecrated the wild animals to all the gods. Compare Mahābhārata, Ādiparvan 117.12–15 (ed. Poona), transl. van Buitenen I, 246. Nābhāga, Ambarīṣa, Rāma, Aila, Pṛthu, Virasena, Haryaśva and Bharata are mentioned as having abstained from meat during the waxing moon in the autumn, which earned them a sojourn in the Brahmaloka (7.22–25).
