पुराणम्

English

शुनक १ / ŚUNAKA I. A King of the Solar dynasty. In bhāgavata,  9th skandha it is mentioned that he was the son of kṛta and father of vītihotra.

शुनक २ / ŚUNAKA II. Minister of purañjaya,  a King of kaliyuga. In bhāgavata,  12th skandha,  there is a story that this śunaka murdered his King and made his own son King.

शुनक ३ / ŚUNAKA III. A Rājarṣi. He was born from a portion of the asura named candrahantā. This Rājarṣi attained samādhi (passed away) at candra tīrtha. During his life he received a sword from King hariṇāśva and he presented it to another King uśīnara. (M.B. Ādi Parva,  Chapter 67
 Vana Parva,  Chapter 123
 śānti Parva,  Chapter 166).

शुनक ४ / ŚUNAKA IV. A Maharṣi. In the Purāṇas it is said that sūta read Purāṇas in an assembly at which śaunaka and others had been present in Naimiṣāraṇya. There are two inferences about this śaunaka. In bhāgavata,  9th skandha we find that the sage gṛtsamada who belonged to Bhṛguvaṁśa had a son named śunaka and this Śunaka's son was named śaunaka. A son named śunaka was born to King ruru by his wife pramadvarā. mahābhārata,  Ādi Parva,  Chapter 5 mentions that this śunaka was an exceptionally brilliant scholar in Vedas and Śāstras and was the grandfather of śaunaka. Ruru's son,  śunaka was a member of Yudhiṣṭhira's assembly. (M.B. Sabhā Parva,  Chapter 4,  Verse 10).
