Maharishi Ashtvakra is well known to all devout Hindus, he defeated Sage vaNdi in shAstrArth, Ashtvakra Geeta and Ashtvakra Smhinta are available, but his history is less known
His visit to Janak's palace made it time of Ramayana, In Mahabharata too he comes when he cursed Aghasura to become snake.
However his complete history is not known, where he was born, where was his Ashram, etc.
How much is known about him
