Chakshusha is a figure of Hindu mythology, the Manu of the sixth Manwantara, son of Ripu by Vrihati.
The Márkandeya has a legend of his birth as a son of Ksbatriya ; of his being exchanged at his birth for the son of Visranta Rája, and being brought up by the prince as his own ; of his revealing the business when a man, and propitiating Brahma by his devotions, in consequence of which he became a Manu; In his former birth he was born from the eye of Brahma; whence his name from Chakshush 'the eye.'
