पुराणम्
English
बर्हिषद्स् / BARHIṢAD(S). A class of Manes. It is mentioned in agni purāṇa, Chapter 20 that some classes of manes such as Agniṣvāttas, barhiṣads, anagnis, and Sāgnis are said to have derived from brahmā. brahmā created two different sets of pitṛs, Agniṣvāttas and barhiṣads. (Chapter 10, Aṁśam 1, viṣṇu purāṇa).
These barhiṣads who are members of the yamasabhā (council of the God of death) perform the māntric rites for the dead. The name brings into its fold the world of the seven sacred sages also. (Chapter 208, śānti Parva, M.B.). It was through these barhiṣads that brahmā taught Sātvatadharma to a brahmin who became wellknown later as jyeṣṭha. (Chapter 34, Śloka 45, śānti Parva, M.B.).
manusmṛti states that the barhiṣads are the sons of the Maharṣi atri and the pitṛs of all the Daityas, Dānavas, Yakṣas, Gandharvas, Uragas, Rākṣasas, Suvarṇas and kinnaras.Daityadānavayakṣāṇāṁ
