My dear Vidura, of the two sons, KaÅ›yapa and PÅ«rṇimÄ, PÅ«rṇimÄ begot three children, namely Viraja, ViÅ›vaga and DevakulyÄ. Of these three, DevakulyÄ was the water which washed the lotus feet of the Personality of Godhead and which later on transformed into the Ganges of the heavenly planets.
Of the two sons KaÅ›yapa and PÅ«rṇimÄ, herein PÅ«rṇimÄ’s descendants are described. An elaborate description of these descendants will be given in the Sixth Canto. It is also understood herein that DevakulyÄ is the presiding deity of the river Ganges, which comes down from the heavenly planets to this planet and is accepted to be sanctified because it touched the lotus feet of the Supreme Personality of Godhead, Hari.
