सांदीपनिः N. of a sage. [According to Viṣṇu Purāṇa, he was the tutor of Kṛṣṇa and Balarāma, and asked, as his preceptor's fee that his son, who was kept by a demon named Panchajana underneath the waters, should be restored to him. Kṛṣṇa, having undertaken to get him up, plunged into the sea, killed the demon, and brought back the boy to his father].
