Second wife Paulmi: Paulmi was the daughter of the Dulom dynasty of the Asuras. Pulm’s girl was engaged to a man of her own dynasty, named Mahabharata Shantiparva Chapter 13. But his father left this relationship and married Maharishi Bhrigu.
When Maharishi Chyavan was in her womb, in the absence of Bhrigu, one day the opportunity was taken to Dansa (Tulomasar) and took away the polymi. Due to mourning and sorrow, Paulmi had an abortion and the baby fell on the earth, due to which it was called Chyavan (fallen).

There are 5 more sons from Paulmi’s womb.

Along with the marriage of Bhargava Chyavan and Sukanya, Bhargavas made their debut in the south of the Himalayas.

Richik: According to the Puranas, Maharishi Richik, who was married to Satyavati, the daughter of King Gadhi, became the sage Jamadagni. Jamadagni was married to the princess Renuka of Ayodhya from whom Parashurama was born.
It is noteworthy that Gadhi had a worldwide son named Vishwamitra, who had rivalry with Guru Vashistha. Parashurama received the education of the scriptures from Dada Richik, father Jamadagni and his father’s maternal uncle Rajarshi Vishwamitra and Lord Shankar. Chyavan married Sukanya, the daughter of King Sharyati.
Third contribution: Another Bhrigu in the Marichi clan, who had more reputation. He was born in Brahmaloka-Susha Nagar.

He had two brothers with his parents. Your elder brother’s name was Angira Rishi. His sons were Jupiter, who is known as the priest-deva guru of the gods.
If both Bhrigu are the same, then they had three wives- Khyati, Divya and Paulmi. All the sons who were from them should be called Bhriguvanshi Bhargava.
The 3 prominent sons of Bhrigu Rishi were Ushna, Venus and Chyavan. Among them, Venus and his family were destroyed due to joining favor of the demons. Thus Chyavan Rishi increased the Bhargava dynasty. The sequence of Chyavan Rishi in the Mahabharata is as follows. Chyavan (wife Manukanya Aarushi), Auva, Aurva from Richik, Richik to Jamadagni, Jamadagni to Parashurama. Among the sons of Bhrigu Rishi, Chyavan Rishi and his family belonged to the country in western India. Ushanas Venus belonged to the central part of North India. This dynasty is considered the following individuals- Richik Aurva, Jamadagni, Parashuram, Indraot Shaunak, Prachetas and Valmiki. Many people of Valmiki dynasty are Brahmins today and Shudra? Too. It is said that during the Mughal period, the Brahmins who compulsively dissolved Janeu and accepted their scavenging, they were called Shudras. The Kshatriyas who were appointed above the Shudras were called Mahatar, who later deteriorated to the height.
There were many Brahmins in the Bhargava dynasty, who were Suryavanshi rather than Bhargava. These Brahmins are called ‘Kshatriya Brahmins’. These include the following people in whose name the dynasty went ahead. 1. Matsya, 2. Maudgalayan, 3. Sankritya, 4. Gagyavan, 5. Gargiya, 6. Kapi, 7. Maitreya, 8. Sluggish, 9. Divodas. -(Matsya Purana 149.98.100). The Kshatriya who joined the Bhargava dynasty was Mitrau, the son of Bharatvanshi King Divodas. The descendants of Mitrau were called Maitreya and Maitreya Gana was enforced from him. The third Kshatriya origin of Bhargavas was called Vaitahya or Yask. The Bhargava dynasty was decorated by Yask. well…. Due to the child of Bhrigu, all the people of his clan and descent are called Bhargava. Hindu Emperor Hemchandra Vikramaditya was also Bhriguvanshi.
