Brahma Incest With Daughter
Brahma Incest With Daughter
Lord Brahma
1:7:4:2. This, assuredly, was a sin in the eyes of the gods. 'He who acts thus
towards his own daughter, our sister, [commits a sin],' they thought.
1:7:4:3. The gods then said to this god who rules over the beasts
(Rudra) , 'This one, surely, commits a sin who acts thus
towards his own daughter, our sister. Pierce him!' Rudra,
taking aim, pierced him. Half of his seed fell to the ground. And thus it
came to pass.
1:7:4:4. Accordingly it has been said by the Rishi with reference to that (incident), 'When the father
embraced his daughter, uniting with her, he dropped his seed on the earth.' This (became) the
chant (uktha) called âgnimâruta ; in (connection with) this it is set forth how the gods caused that seed
to spring. When the anger of the gods subsided, they cured Pragâpati and cut out that dart of this.
(Rudra); for Pragâpati, doubtless, is this sacrifice.
