# Saubhari Muni

Sukadeva Goswami described the descendants of Ambarish and then detailed the descendants of Iksvaku (another of Vaivasvata Manu’s sons) up to Mandhata, whose unique birth and powerful rulership was described. Mandhata’s fifty daughters were all married to Saubhari Muni, and Sukadeva Goswami thus narrated the sage’s history.

Once, while meditating in the waters of the Yamuna, Saubhari witnessed two fishes copulating. He became so sexually agitated that he desired to marry one of Mandhata’s daughters. He rejuvenated his body, after which all fifty daughters selected him as their husband. By dint of yogic power, the former ascetic provided all household opulence for his wives, had 100 children with each one and thus expanded his family network. He later reflected on how ephemeral sense gratification is, and how he had become entangled in a very mundane existence. Having reawakened his spiritual intelligence, he retired from family life (*vanaprastha*), practised austerities and subsequently attained perfection.
