Dhṛta Ṛshi

Dhṛta Ṛshi

The Pratisarga Parva of the Bhavishya Purāṇa tells that when twenty-six thousand years of the third caraṇa of the Kali Yuga have passed, by the command of Rudra, Dhṛta Ṛshi will produce from Saurabhī, the nāga’s wife, very strong humans named Kaulakalpa, who will eat all the Kinnaras. The frightened Kinnaras will take refuge in the Vāmana aṃśa, and a terrible war will follow between Bhogasiṃha and Kelisiṃha and the Kaulakalpas.
