Bhumanyu (Шаблон:Lang-sa) is a king of the Chandravamsha (Lunar) dynasty in Hindu literature. He is the son of Bharata, and the grandson of Dushyanta. Bhumanyu's lineage is featured in the Mahabharata.[1]

Legend

The Mahabharata offers two different origins of Bhumanyu's birth: The first legend says that Bharata married Sunanda, the daughter of Sarvasena, the king of the Kashi kingdom, and received from her a son named Bhumanyu. According to another legend, Bhumanyu was born out of a yajna that Bharata performed under the instructions of the sage Bharadvaja.[2]

In the epic, after Bhumanyu reached the age of maturity, his father Bharata entrusted him with the affairs of his kingdom. Bhumanyu had six sons by his wife Puṣkariṇi; Diviratha, Suhotra, Suhotā, Sukavi, Suyaju, and Ṛcīka.[3] Bhumanyu was succeeded by his son, Suhotra.[4]
