From their seeds were born AgasthyA (the mover of the mountains/agasthi ) and VasishtA ( owner of wealth). His birth is mentioned in many purANams (Matsya, Padma and BrahmANDa PurANams) and in MahA BhAratham. Rg Vedam (7.33.13) also mentions his birth.Om Namo Narayanya:Sunil.guruvayur , Syamala Nair <syamalaraghunath wrote:>> While reading Ramayanam, I understand that another name for Shri Agastya Muni is Kumbha Sambhava.
