Sarvakarmā

Sarvakarmā

Sarvakarmā is a king of the Ikshvāku line, the solar vaṃśa. He was the son of Saudāsa, also called Kalmāshapāda and Mitrasaha, and the father of Anaraṇya.

Lomaharshaṇa the Sūta tells the munis the line of the Sun after Bhagīratha. Ṛtuparṇa, the friend of Nala, who knew the secret of dice, had a son Ārtaparṇi; his son was Sudāsa, the friend of Indra; and Sudāsa’s son Saudāsa became king. Saudāsa’s son was Sarvakarmā, and Sarvakarmā’s son was Anaraṇya. Anaraṇya’s son was Nighna, from whom came the two foremost kings Anamitra and Raghu.
