The two sons Agastya and Vasistha later appeared from that pot, and they are therefore the common sons of Mitra and Varuëa. Mitra begot three sons in the womb of his wife, whose name was Revati. Their names were Utsarga, Arista and Pippala. O King Pariksit, Indra, the King of the heavenly planets and eleventh son of Aditi, begot three sons, named Jayanta, Åsabha and Midhuna, in the womb of his wife, Paulomi. Thus we have heard. By His own potency, the Supreme Personality of Godhead, who has multifarious potencies, appeared in the form of a dwarf as Urukrama, the twelfth son of Aditi. In the womb of His wife, whose name was Kirti, He begot one son, named Brhatsloka, who had many sons, headed by Saubhaga. Later [in the Eighth Canto of Çrémad-Bhägavatam] I shall describe how Urukrama, Lord Vamanadeva, appeared as the son of the great sage Kashyapa and how He covered the three worlds with three steps.
