Avatsara
Avatsara was a Rishi of the Rig Veda. His name first appears in the Fifth Mandala which is older than the Second Mandala. ==Background==
Avatsara is the main poet of Sukta 44 of the Fifth Mandala of the Rig veda which hymn addressed to the Rigvedic deities, the Visvedevas. He is more known for the set of eight hymns of four mantras each appearing in the Rig Veda viz. Suktas IX.53 to IX.60, and also in the Samaveda (SV.757, SV.1717). He was the Hotr of the gods. He had delighted Agni by the six-syllable oblation – ''O Agni, enjoy the oblation'', and was set-free. According to Satyasadha (21.3.13), the parvaras of Kashyaps consist of three rishi – ancestors: – Kashyap, Avatsara and Naidhruva. There are eight notable rishis belonging to the Kashyap family – ''Kashyap'', ''Avatsara'', ''Nidhurva'', ''Rebha'', ''Devala'', ''Asita'', ''Bhutamsa'' and ''Vivrha''; two unnamed sons of ''Rebha'' were also authors of Rigvedic hymns.
