Aṃśumat (I) — son of Asamañja(sa)(s), devoted to grandfather Sagara.1 Went in search of the consecrated horse of Sagara, met Kapila and belauded his greatness.2 Pleased with him, Kapila sent back the horse, adding that the Sāgaras would obtain release by the waters of the Ganges.3 Succeeded Sagara as king.4 Was engaged in penance to get the Gaṅgā for the liberation of his uncles. Before he could achieve this, he died. His son was Dilīpa.5 Anointing him, Aṃśumat retired to the forest. [Footnote] 1) Bhā. IX. 8. 15; Br. III. 51. 51; 52. 1; M. 12. 43; Vā. 88. 166; Vi.
