Question

Which sacrifice was performed by Non-Kshatriya rulers to claim Kshatriya status? a) Ashvamedha b) Hiranya-Garbha c) Rajsuya Yajna d) all of these ​

Answer 1

Answer:

Dantidurga overthrew his Chalukya overlord and performed a ritual called HiranyaGarbha which means the golden womb. This was performed because they believe in rebirth of the sacrificer as a Kshatriya, even if he was not one by birth.
