King Ajatasatru aka Kunika (ruled c. 492 BC – c. 460 BC) was a king of the Magadha empire in north India. He was the son of King Bimbisara ( 558 BC –491 BC), the great monarch of Magadha. He was contemporary to Mahavira ( 540 BCE–468 BCE) and Buddha (563 BCE–483 BCE).
See Wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ajatashatru 150501, 181019
"According to Buddhist tradition, the Samaññaphala Sutta deals with his first meeting with the Buddha, where he realized his mistakes with his association to Devadatta and plan to killing his own father. According to the same text, during this meeting, Ajatashatru took protection of the Buddha, the Dhamma and the Sangha. He was mentioned more than once in several other Sutta as an example of strong devotee to the Buddha, the Dhamma and the Sangha. He erected a vast Stupa on the bones and ashes of the Buddha after the funeral, and Ajatashatru also was present in the first Buddhist council at the Sattapanni (Saptparni) caves Rajgriha. ... Whether Ajatashatru was a Jain or Buddhist, both texts accounted him as a devotee of respective religion."Read more about King Ajatasatru in Fourth Adhyâya, The Upanishads, Part 1 (SBE01), by F. Max Müller, [1879], at sacred-texts.com

Angiras (अंगिरस्, pronounced as "əngirəs"; nominative singular Angirā - अंगिरा, pronounced as "əngirα:") is a Vedic rishi (or sage) who, along with sage Atharvan, is credited to have formulated ("heard") most of the fourth Veda called Atharvaveda. He is also mentioned in the other three Vedas. Sometimes he is reckoned as one of the Seven Great Sages, or saptarishis of the first Manvantara, with others being, Marichi, Atri, Pulaha, Kratu, Pulastya, and Vashishtha [1] Bharadwaja maharshis was his descendant. .
His wife is Surūpa and his sons are Utatya, Samvartana and Brihaspati. He is one of the ten Manasaputras (wish-born-son) of Lord Brahma. Other accounts say that he married smrithy, the daughter of Daksha.
The name Angirasas is applied generically to several Puranic individuals and things; a class of Pitris, the ancestors of man according to Hindu Vedic writings, and probably descended from the sage Angiras. In the Rigveda, Agni is sometimes referred to as Angiras or as a descendant of Angiras (RV 1.1). In the Rigveda, Indra drives out cows from where they had been imprisoned by either a demon (Vala) or multiple demons (the Panis) and gifts them to the Angirasas (RV 3.31, 10.108 and a reference in 8.14). Mandala 6 of the Rigveda is attributed to a family of Angirasas.
Lord Buddha is said to be a descendant of Sage Angirasa in many Buddhist texts. [2] Scholars like Dr. Eitel connects it to the Rishi Gautama. [3] There too were Kshatiryas of other clans to whom members descend from Angirasa, to fulfill a childless king's wish. [4]

UKT 150501, 161020: This note is intended for Bur-Myan speakers, and may not be totally applicable to British English (RP) nor General American (GA).
When
{ka.} and
{ra.} are brought near each other *, they
can form a disyllabic conjunct, or as in
the case of Bur-Myan, a monosyllabic
medial which sounds like
{kya.} without rhoticity (aka
R-colouring **). However, in the case
of Rakhine dialect of Bur-Myan, and
Pal-Myan, the monosyllable has a
distinctly rhotic sound with R-colouring.
In every case, the combination of
{ka.} and
{ra.} is written as
{kra.}.

** In the case of spoken English, R-colouring is either due to consonant at the beginning of the word, or to the vowel. The R-colouring due to consonant is best explained by pronunciation of words such as "rabbit", "radish", "rainbow", "rat", "red", "ring", "road", "rocket", "rocking horse", "rose", "run", etc. Read R-coloured vowel in Wikipedia:
"R-colored vowels are rare, occurring in less than one percent of the languages of the world. [1] However, they occur in two of the most widely spoken languages: North American English and Mandarin Chinese. In North American English, they are found in words such as butter, nurse and, for some speakers, start. "
