Sūta said:: After saying thus, they, who had been cursed by Bhava in the course of Svāyambhuva Manvantara, became born in the Cākṣuṣa Manvantara, for further creation. They returned from Janaloka and were born here once again. They were born in the sacrifice of the great lord who had assumed the physical form of Varuṇa. This has been heard by us that the sages had their second birth, even as Brahmā, with a desire for begetting children, was performing the Homa in the fire by means of his semen.
