The sage said:: The stellar zone consists of twenty-seven stars. The Saptarṣis are seven sages (Ursa Major). During the period of Parīkṣit the Saptarṣīs were in the Pitrya constellation (i.e. Maghā) where they stayed for a hundred years. They will stay for a hundred years in each of the contellations by twins. Hence, the period of dynasty of Āndhras will be two thousand seven hundred years.
