agastyaḥ prāg duhitaram

upayeme dhṛta-vratām

yasyāṁ dṛḍhacyuto jāta

idhmavāhātmajo muniḥ

The sage Agastya married the first-born daughter of Malayadhvaja, who had firm vows, in whom one son named Dṛḍhacyuta was born. Dṛḍhacyuta had Idhmavāha as his son.

Agastya married the first daughter. Agastya means “one who brings together (stya) all the senses which cannot act (aga) on their own.” This means the mind, which accepted a taste (ruci) for Kṛṣṇa (the first daughter). That taste produced firm vows of mercy, tolerance and other good qualities (dṛdha-vratām). This means that from taste (ruci), by great mercy, the mind of the jīva then developed āsakti for serving Kṛṣṇa. That āsakti was devoid of (cyutaḥ) attachment (dṛdha) to Satyaloka and other places. This means it had distaste for enjoyments of this world and higher worlds. Or there developed distaste for other practices like jñāna and for liberation. That means the mind was completely devoid of desire for other practices or goals because of the exclusive taste for serving Kṛṣṇa. How did all this arise? He had a son Idhmavāha (one who carries firewood for sacrifice). This is famous in the śruti passage tad-vijñānārthaṁ sa gurum evābhigacchet samit-pāṇiḥ śrotriyaṁ brahma-niṣṭham: with fuel in hand, one should approach a guru learned in the Vedas and fixed in the Lord for knowledge of the Lord. (Muṇḍaka Upaniṣad 1.2.12) It means surrender to guru. According to the story line, Agastya had a son named Dṛdhacyuta who had a son named Idhmavāha. This is a description of the descendents of Malaydhvaja’s daughter.
