yoga-tantraṁ cakāra ha
jaigīṣavyopadeśena
yoga-tantraṁ cakāra ha
udaksenas tatas tasmād
bhallāṭo bārhadīṣavāḥ
Following the instructions of the great sage Jaigīṣavya, Viṣvaksena compiled an elaborate description of the mystic yoga system. From Viṣvaksena, Udaksena was born, and from Udaksena, Bhallāṭa. All these sons are known as descendants of Bṛhadiṣu.
Viṣvaksena compiled a work on yoga. All the sons were descendents of Bṛhadīśu. The form bārhadīṣavāḥ is poetic license. Bārhadiṣavaḥ would be the correct form.
