Viṣṇu corporeally took his birth as the son of king
Daśaratha. I (sc. Lomaśa) saw him in Ayodhyā when he
had been born. Then Rāma Bhārgava, the [grand] son of Ṛcīka
and the son of Reṇūkā, went to Ayodhyā with his bow
with which he had destroyed the kṣatriyas, to see Rāma
Dāśarathi. Daśaratha sent Rāma to receive him. Rāma
Dāśarathi stringed Rāma Bhārgava's bow without exertion
and enabled him to see him in his true form and to
behold, in his body, the Adityas, the Vasus, the Rudras,
the Sādhyas, the gaṇas of the Maruts, the Pitṛs, Hutāśana
(i.e. Agni), the nakṣatras and planets, the Gandharvas, the
Rākṣasas, the Yakṣas, the rivers and tīrthas, the eternal
ṛṣis named Vālakhilyas, who had become identical with
Brahmán, the Devarṣis, the seas and mountains, the Vedas
with the Upaniṣads, the vaṣaṭkāras, and the sacrifices,
the Sāmans in their living form (cetamanti), the Dhanurveda,
the clouds, rains, and lightnings; then he shot a celestial
shaft presented to him by Rāma Bhārgava; at this the earth
was filled with sounds of thunder, etc., and began to quake.
Rāma Bhārgava was for a time deprived of his senses, and
the shaft came blazing back into Rāma Dāśarathi's hands.
Rāma Bhārgava proceeded to the Mahendra mountain, where
he dwelt in terror and shame till after a year his pitṛs,
beholding him deprived of energy, caused him to bathe in
the sacred river Vadhūsara, especially in the tīrtha Dīptoda,
where Bhṛgu had practised austerities in the devayuga;
by this R. regained his energy (III, 99): III, 99, 8656

and cremated his father, R. vowed to slay the entire
kṣatriya caste, he then killed the sons of Arjuna Kārtavīrya,
and the kṣatriyas who followed them, and twenty-one times
he made the earth devoid of kṣatriyas; then he made five
lakes of blood in Samantapañcaka, where he offered libations
(tarpayām āsa) to the Bhṛgus, and Ṛcīka appeared to him
and gave him advice. At a sacrifice R. satisfied Indra and
gave the earth to the ṛtvijes, and a golden altar, 10 vyāmas in
breadth and 9 in height, to Kaśyapa, which Kaśyapa allowed
the brahmans to divide in shares (thence they were named
Khāṇḍavāyanāḥ). After having given the earth to Kaśyapa.
