Question


Who is Ruchi, father of Vishnu’s incarnation Yagna?

Answer


According to Vayu Purana, Chapter 9, Verse 100, Sage Ruchi was the mind-born son of Lord Brahma.

Of Brahma, a son named Ruci, the mindborn one, deserves to be recognised as such. And from the breath, he created Daksa and from the two eyes Maricin (i. e. the Sun).
