These sons were Dhṛtarāṣṭra, Pāṇḍu and Vidura. | | | Bādarāyaṇa, Śrī Vyāsadeva, siguiendo la orden de su madre, Satyavatī, engendró tres hijos, dos en las esposas de su hermano Vicitravīrya, Ambikā y Ambālikā, y el tercero en la criada de Vicitravīrya.

PURPORT SIGNIFICADO
| Vicitravīrya died of tuberculosis, and his wives, Ambikā and Ambālikā, had no issue. Therefore, after Vicitravīrya’s death, his mother, Satyavatī, who was also the mother of Vyāsadeva, asked Vyāsadeva to beget children through the wives of Vicitravīrya. In those days, the brother of the husband could beget children through the womb of his sister-in-law. This was known as devareṇa sutotpatti. If the husband was somehow unable to beget children, his brother could do so through the womb of his sister-in-law. This devareṇa sutotpatti and the sacrifices of aśvamedha and gomedha are forbidden in the Age of Kali. | | | Vicitravīrya murió de tuberculosis sin que sus esposas, Ambikā y Ambālikā, tuviesen descendencia. Por esa razón, después de su muerte, Satyavatī pidió a Vyāsadeva, que también era hijo suyo, que engendrara descendencia en las esposas de Vicitravīrya. En aquellos días, era lícito que el hermano del esposo engendrase hijos en el vientre de su cuñada. Ese proceso se denominaba devareṇa sutotpatti. Si, por alguna razón, el esposo manifestaba incapacidad para engendrar hijos, era lícito que su hermano los engendrase en el vientre de su cuñada. En la era de Kali, el proceso de devareṇa sutotpatti y los sacrificios aśvamedha y gomedha están prohibidos. | | | | aśvamedhaṁ gavālambhaṁ

(Brahma-vaivarta Purāṇa). | | | << Previous Anterior | Next Siguiente >>
