I copy-edited the whole article for English grammar and spelling. I know nothing of the subject so someone more knowledgeable than I will have to make certain that the article is factual. I deleted this list because I did not know what is was referring to:
"Parasar,s avarnya, kashyap, bharadwaj, kaushik, bhargav, vatsa, katyayan, sankrit, atri, galav, angira, and jamdagni."
I think it was supposed to be a list of other gotras, but I wasn't certain so I cut it. Hdstubbs 19:32, 16 February 2006 (UTC)
Yes. It was refering to the other 13. There are two classes, also refered to as the 'houses', consisting of the 3[higher] and 13[other] rishis or sages. The classification is based on the person belonging to one of these 3 or 13 sages of the respective house. There are also specific places of settlement and traits through which these distinctions are identified. Since these classifications have traditionally passed over generations, I do not know how they can be factually determined and also I am not sure about the timeline given as this probably predates about 500BC at least. I have an old journal[hard copy] from my great-grandfather which has details about this topic, and I will be glad to find from it and share its relevant contents here. --Girish.shukla 17:07, 4 June 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Wrong Title
The title of the article is incorrect. It is सरयुपारिन or सरयूपारिन (of course with a halant ending) so the title should be "Sarayuparin". Can someone change it please. Maquahuitl 02:47, 27 February 2007 (UTC)
