Lives of Ancient Indian Saints
Agastya The Birth But Surya and Varuna could never forget the beautiful face of Urvasi, the lovely nymph. They became love-lorn. On account of their excessive passion for her their semen (seed) was about to fall. They looked inward and could understand Indra's curse to the two Gods and heir desire to take their births on the earth. Agni entered the Sun-God and Vayu entered the god of waters. Surya and Varuna never wanted to obstruct their birth through their semen (seed). Therefore, unseen by each other, the two Gods left their semen in a pitcher - a jar of water and went away. In course of time from that pitcher two great saints were born. One was Agastya, the other was Vasistha. They were "Kalasijas or Kumbha Sambhavas" meaning " the Pitcher - born." They got the epithet "Mitra Varuna Putras: sons of the Sun-God and the water - God and also " Vahni Maruta Sambhavas," the sons of fire and wind. From this parentage Agastya is also called " Mitra Varuni" " Aourvaseya". This sotry is found in the Rigveda in the Padma Purana, in the chapter on creation and in the Vanaparva of the Mahabharata.
