His line
The Brahma Purāṇa tells that to Kroshṭu was born Vṛjinīvant; his son was Svāhi, the best among performers of yajña; Svāhi’s son Ushadgu obtained by yajñas the son Citraratha, devoted to sacred works; and Citraratha’s son was Śaśabindu, a performer of yajñas and a giver of ample dakshiṇā, who followed the conduct of the rājarshis. Śaśabindu’s son was Pṛthuśravas, a yaśasvī (famous) king. “Those who know the Purāṇas,” the text says, “say that his son was Antara.” To Antara was born Suyajña.
