Atidānta

Atidānta · ati-dānta, “the greatly self-controlled”

Atidānta is a Yādava of the Bhoja line, one of the ten sons of Bhadika. His brothers include Kṛtavarma and Śatadhanvā.

His line

The Brahma Purāṇa traces the line from Bhajamāna. Bhajamāna’s son was Vidūratha, chief among chariot-warriors, and Vidūratha’s son was the hero Rājādhideva. Rājādhideva’s son Śamī had a son Pratikshatra, whose son was Svayambhoja, whose son was Bhadika. Bhadika’s sons, of fearsome valour, were Kṛtavarma the eldest, Śatadhanvā the middle one, Devāntaka, Narānta, Bhishak, Paitaruṇa, Sudānta, Atidānta, Nikāśya and Kāmadambhaka.
