Manasputra is a Sanskrit term which literally means "mind-born son" or "mind-son". In Hinduism, the god Brahma created ten sons from his mind, these rishis, or sages were also known as prajapati. According to the Bhagavata Purana, their names are: Atri, Angiras, Pulastya, Marichi, Pulaha, Kratu, Bhrigu, Vashistha, Daksha and Narada.[1]
