TRANSLATION
Satyavati, however, pacified Ricika Muni with peaceful words and requested that her son not be like a fierce kshatriya. Ricika Muni replied, "Then your grandson will be of a kshatriya spirit." Thus Jamadagni was born as the son of Satyavati.
PURPORT
The great sage Ricika was very angry, but somehow or other Satyavati pacified him, and at her request he changed his mind. It is indicated here that the son of Jamadagni would be born as Parasurama.
