Madhu has other meanings too: see all meanings of Madhu. Devarāta has other meanings too: see all meanings of Devarāta.
Devakshatra is a king of the line of Vidarbha, in the family of Yadu: the son of Devarāta and the father of Vṛddhakshatra, whose son Madhu founded the line of the Madhus.
His line
Vidarbha‘s son was Bhīma; his son was Kunti; his son was Dhṛshṭa, bold in battle and full of valour. Dhṛshṭa had three sons, heroes and supremely dhārmic: Avanta, Daśārha and Vishahara. Daśārha’s son was Vyoma; his son Jīmūta; his son Vikṛti; his son Bhīmaratha; and then Navaratha. Navaratha’s son was Daśaratha; his son Śakuni; Śakuni’s son Karambha; Karambha’s son Devarāta; his son Devakshatra; and his son Vṛddhakshatra. Vṛddhakshatra’s son was Madhu, like a son of the devas, sweet of speech, the founder of the line of the Madhus, and Madhu’s son by Aikshvākī was Sattvant, who gave the Sātvatas their name.
