Sucetana

Sucetana · su-cetana, “the one of good understanding”

Sucetana is a king of the line of Anu, son of Yayāti. He was the son of Pracetana, and he is the last king the Brahma Purāṇa names in that line.

His line

The Sūta tells the munis the lines of the sons of Yayāti. Anu‘s son was Dharma; Dharma’s son was Dyūta; his son was Vanadaha; his son was Pracetana; and Pracetana’s son was Sucetana. The Sūta closes the line with the words: “They were called descendants of Turvasu.”
