सार्ञ्जय / SĀRÑJAYA. A sṛñjaya King. Mention is made about this King who had been the support of the Bharadvājas, in ṛgveda, Maṇḍala 6, Anuvāka 47, Sūkta 25.
Vedic Reference
English
Sārñjaya is found in the Rigveda^1 in a Dānastuti (‘praise of
gifts’) where the word probably denotes the ‘Sṛñjaya king’
rather than a ‘descendant of Sṛñjaya.’ According to the
Śāṅkhāyana Śrauta Sūtra, ^2 he was Prastoka, mentioned, in the
same hymn, but this conclusion is not very cogent. He was
clearly a patron of the Bharadvājas. The same epithet
belongs to Sahadeva, alias Suplan.
