after creating the Prajapaties had divided
Himself in to two parts as Manu and
Satarupa,the first man and woman of this
Universe .Both of them were advised by
Brahma to produce praja and live happily.
According to the advice of their father
Brahma ,Manu and Satarupa prduced two
sons named Priyabrata and Uttanapada
and three daughters named Akuti ,
Debahuti and Prasuti .
Kardama, one of the Prajapaties
created by Brahma earlier was doing
tapasya for production of praja as per
the advice of Brahma,his father .
Bhagavan,the Almighty God advised
Manu to get married his daughter Debahuti
with Kardama who is doing tapasya.
Simultaneously Bhagavan went to Kardama
and told that He is satisfied with
him and advised him to marry Debahuti, the
daughter of Manu for fulfilling his
ambitions of creation of praja as per the
advice of his father, Brahma .
Manu and Satarupa came to the
Ashram of Kardama with their daughter in
a chariot and left Debahuti in Kardama's
Ashram asking him to marry her as per the
Vedic rituals .
The marriage of Kardama and
Debahuti was the first marriage ever done
in the universe according to Bhagavat.
