पुराणम्
English
कुशाम्ब १ / KUŚĀMBA I. The third son of uparicaravasu. kuśāmba is also known of Maṇivāha. vasu had five sons called bṛhadratha, kuśāmba, māvella, yadu and Rājanya.
कुशाम्ब २ / KUŚĀMBA II .1) General. A son of kuśa. The city he built was called kauśāmbī. (See under kuśa).2) Other information. (i) kuśāmba had a daughter called Cārvaṅgī, who was married by bhadraśreṇya, the solar King. (brahmāṇḍa purāṇa, Chapter 2).(ii) Two sons, śakra and gādhi were born to kuśāmba and to gādhi was born a daughter, satyavatī. viśvāmitra was Gādhi's son. (brahmāṇḍa purāṇa, Chapter 57).
This statement is not quite correct. Certain other Purāṇas maintain that gādhi, the father of viśvāmitra was the son of kuśanābha, who was the son of kuśika and brother of kuśāmba. (See under kuśanābha).
