You have already been informed about the nine daughters of Kardama Muni, who were handed over to nine different sages. I shall now describe the descendants of those nine daughters. Please hear from me.
The Third Canto has already described how Kardama Muni begot nine daughters in DevahÅ«ti and how all the daughters were later handed over to great sages like MarÄ«ci, Atri and Vasiá¹£á¹ha.
