Translation

Mahārāja Parīkṣit said: Śukrācārya was a very powerful brāhmaṇa, and Mahārāja Yayāti was a kṣatriya. Therefore I am curious to know how there occurred this pratiloma marriage between a kṣatriya and a brāhmaṇa.

हिन्दी टीका-पाठ

राजा परीक्षित‍्ने पूछा— भगवन्! भगवान् शुक्राचार्यजी तो ब्राह्मण थे और ययाति क्षत्रिय। फिर ब्राह्मण-कन्या और क्षत्रिय-वरका प्रतिलोम (उलटा) विवाह कैसे हुआ?॥ ५॥
