पुराणम्
Englishपराशर १ / PARĀŚARA I .1) Genealogy. Descending in order from viṣṇu--brahmā -vasiṣṭha--śakti--parāśara.2) Birth. śakti, son of vasiṣṭha begot of his wife Adṛṣyantī the son named parāśara. Even at the time of his birth he was a scholar. (For details regarding birth see under Adṛśyanṭī).3) Rākṣasayāga. Even before the birth of parāśara, kalmāṣapāda in his demoniacal form ate his father, śakti. Therefore parāśara nurtured an obstinate hatred against the Rākṣasas. So he performed a Yāga to kill all the rākṣasas. Thousands of rākṣasas were burnt to death at this yāga and vasiṣṭha, grandfather of parāśara felt sorry for the innocent rākṣasas. He approached parāśara and said “Son, do not give way to such anger. Abandon this wrath. What harm have these poor rākṣasas done? death was in the destiny of your father. Every one has to suffer the result of his own deeds. Anger destroys the fame and austerity which one has attained by years of toil. Therefore abandon your anger and wind up your Yāga.”
parāśara accepted the abvice of his grandfather. vasiṣṭha was pleased with his grandson and at that time Pulastyamaharṣi son of brahmā also came there. vasiṣṭha gave arghya (water and flowers) and received him. Then vasiṣṭha and pulastya jointly blessed him and said he would be the author of Purāṇasaṁhitā. Thus parāśara became the best of the guruparamparā (traditional line of preceptors). (Chapter 1, aṁśa 1, viṣṇu purāṇa).4) Birth of vyāsa. parāśara begot a son of a fisherwoman named satyavatī and the boy became later the celebrated vyāsa.5) Other details. (i) He got the name parāśara because even from the womb of his mother he consoled vasiṣṭha when his son śakti, father of parāśara was eaten by the demoniac form of kalmāṣapāda.(ii) See under guruparamparā the status of parāśara in that traditional line of Gurus.(iii) Among the Sūktas, Sūkta 65, Anuvāka 12, Maṇḍala 1 of ṛgveda was sung by parāśara.(iv) parāśara was one among the several sages who visited bhīṣma lying on his bed of arrows. (Chapter 47, śānti Parva).(v) Once parāśara visited king janaka and talked with him on Ādhyātmika topics (spiritual matters). (Chapter 290, śānti Parva). (vi) Chapter 150 of anuśāsana parva mentions parāśara as describing the power of Sāvitrīmantra to an audience.
पराशर २ / PARĀŚARA II. A serpent born of the family of dhṛtarāṣṭra. This was burnt to death at the sarpasatra of janamejaya. (Śloka 19, Chapter 57, Ādi Parva).
Vedic Reference
EnglishParāśara is mentioned with Śatayātu and Vasiṣṭha in the
Rigvedic hymn celebrating Sudās'^1 victory over the ten kings.
According to the Nirukta^2 he was a son of Vasiṣṭha, but the
Epic version makes him a son of Śakti and grandson of Vasiṣṭha.
Geldner^3 thinks that he is mentioned in the Rigveda along with
Śatayātu, perhaps his uncle, and his grandfather Vasiṣṭha, as
the three sages who approached Indra and won his favour for
Sudās. He is erroneously credited with the authorship of
certain hymns of the Rigveda^4 by the Anukramaṇī (Index).

veda, 3, 110, 111
