[INDOLOGY] Daksha's 50 daughters

[Péter Száler]

Dear François,

The Harivaṃśa (Critical ed. 3.23-25) also maintains that Dakṣa has 60
daughters. They were married to the following deities:


   - 10 - Dharma
   - 13 - Kaśyapa
   - 27 - Candra
   - 4 - Ariṣṭanemi
   - 2 - Bahuputra
   - 2 - Aṅgiras
   - 2 - Bhṛśāśva


Kind regards,
Péter Száler
