Daksayan Name Details

The name Daksayan has roots in ancient Hindu mythology. Daksha was the father-in-law of Lord Shiva, and he held a great sacrifice where he intentionally did not invite Lord Shiva due to their differences. Daksha's daughter, Sati, who was married to Lord Shiva, felt insulted and sacrificed herself in the fire of the yagna (sacrificial fire). In vengeance, Lord Shiva opened his third eye and destroyed Daksha's sacrifice. From the ashes of Daksha's burnt body, Daksayan, the son of Daksha, was born. This name carries the significance of being connected to this legendary tale.
