The '''Kumaras''' are the four rishis, who are eternally in the form of children, named as Sanaka, Sanatana, Sanandana and Sanatkumara. Many upanishads and puranas give a detailed account of the legends around these four rishis.  The group is known by various names: "Kumaras" (the boys/male children/young boys), "Chatursana" or "Chatuh sana" (the four with names starting with Sana) and "Sanakadi" (Sanaka and the others).<sup>[6]</sup> Individual names usually include Sanaka (ancient), Sanatana (eternal), Sanandana (joyful) and Sanatkumara (Ever Young). Sometimes, Sanatana is replaced by Sanatsujata.
