	INDROTA (INDRODA) A sage, son of Śuka, the great sage, and also called Śaunaka. Janamejaya, son of King Parīkṣit once killed a brahmin, and at once Brahmahatyā (sin of having killed a brahmin) seized the King. The King lost all mental peace at this and sought the advice of many sages for redemption from the sin, and Indrota (Śaunaka) advised him to go on a pilgrimage and perform righteous duties (dharma). The King acted accordingly and got rid of the sin of killing the brahmin. This story occurs under the title Indrotapārikṣitīyam in [Śānti Parva] in three chapters. (Chapters 150-152).
