Thus have I told you about the fourfold order among the gods. The person who, after rising from his bed in the morning, recites the names of these deities, becomes purged off of all his sins-whether committed by himself intentionally or unintentionally, or whether born of his intercourse with others. Yavakrita, Raivya, Arvavasu, Paravasu, Ausija, Kakshivat, and Vala, are described as the sons of Angiras. These and Kanwa son of the Rishi Medhatithi, and Varhishada, and the wellknown seven Rishis who are the progenitors of the three worlds, all live in the East. Unmucha, Vimucha, the highly energetic Sastyatreya, Pramucha, Idhmavaha, and the divine Dridavrata, and Mitravaruna's highly energetic son Agastya, these twice-born Rishis all live in the South Ushanga, Karusha, Dhaumya, Parivyadha of great energy, and those great Rishis called Ekata, Dvita, and Trita, and Atri's son, viz., the illustrious and powerful Sarasvat, these high-souled ones live in the West. Atreya, and Vashishtha, and the great Rishi Kashyapa, and Gautama, Bharadvaja, and Vishvamitra the son of Kushika, and the illustrious son of the high-souled Richika, viz., Jamadagni,-these seven live the North. Thus have I described to you the great Rishis of fiery energy who live in the different points of the world.
