पुराणम्
Englishआंगिरसी / ĀṄGIRASĪ. A very chaste wife of a Brahmin. By the curse of śakti, son of vasiṣṭha kalmāṣapāda, a king of the ikṣvāku dynasty became a demon. That demon killed and devoured the husband of āṅgirasī. Enraged at this the Brahmin lady cursed kalmāṣapāda saying that if he touched his wife thereafter he would die. That was why vasiṣṭha had to beget a son for kalmāṣapāda of his wife. (Ślokas 16-22, Chapter 181, Ādi Parva, M.B.).
