Pārikṣita, ‘descendant of Parikṣit,’ is the patronymic of Janamejaya in the Aitareya Brāhmaṇa[१] and the Śatapatha Brāhmaṇa.[२] The Pārikṣitīya appear in the Śatapatha Brāhmaṇa[३] and the Śāṅkhāyana Śrauta Sūtra[४] as performers of the horse sacrifice. In a Gāthā there cited they are called Pārikṣitas. Apparently they were the brothers of Janamejaya, named Ugrasena, Bhīmasena, and Śrutasena. In the Bṛhadāraṇyaka Upaniṣad[५] the question whither they have gone is made the subject of a philosophical discussion. It is clear that the family had passed away before the time of the Upaniṣad, and it is also clear that there had been some serious scandal mingled with their greatness which they had, in the opinion of the Brahmins, atoned for by their horse sacrifice with its boundless gifts to the priests. Weber[६] sees in this the germ of the Epic stories which are recorded in the Mahābhārata.
The verses relating to Parikṣit in the Atharvaveda[७] are called Pārikṣityaḥ in the Brāhmaṇas.[८]
