== ભૃગુ સંહિતા ==

Bhrigu is credited as the father of Hindu astrology and the first astrological treatise [[Bhrigu Samhita]] is attributed to his authorship. This treatise is said to contain over 5 million horoscopes, in which he wrote down the fate of every being in the universe. According to popular tradition, only about a hundredth of these horoscopes have survived to this age.

 

== કથા ==

વિષ્ણુ ભગવાન ઊભા થઈ ગયા. તેમણે ઋષિના પગ દબાવ્યા કે મારી વજ્ર જેવી છાતી પર પ્રહાર કરવાથી તમને ક્યાંક વાગ્યું તો નથી ને ? ક્રોધને જીતનાર વિષ્ણુને મહાન જાહેર કરતાં ભૃગુ ઋષિએ કહ્યું, ‘લક્ષ્મી તમને વરે એ જ યોગ્ય છે.’ આમ, ક્રોધને જીતનાર સૌથી મોટો વિજેતા છે.
