Yati (Son of Nahusha)

Yati

Yati is one of the six sons of King Nahusha and a brother of Yayāti. While Yayāti became king, Yati became a muni and attained the state of Brahman. He is a different son from Yāti, the fifth son of Nahusha.

The son of Nahusha

The teller of the Purāṇa tells the munis that Nahusha, a great tapasvin, begot in Virajā, a daughter of the pitṛs, six sons equal to Indra: Yati, Yayāti, Saṃyāti, Āyāti, Yāti and Sumāti. Of them Yayāti became king. Yati became a muni, kept to the path of moksha (liberation) and attained brāhmī-bhāva, the state of Brahman.
