मार्कण्डेय उवाच । आदिकल्पे पुरा राजन्क्षीरोदे भगवान् हरिः । शेते स भोगिशयने योगनिद्राविमोहितः
mārkaṇḍeya uvāca | ādikalpe purā rājankṣīrode bhagavān hariḥ | śete sa bhogiśayane yoganidrāvimohitaḥ
قال ماركاندييا: «في الكَلْبَة الأولى، أيها الملك، كان الربّ المبارك هاري مضطجعًا على محيط اللبن (كشيروذا)، مستلقيًا على فراش الحيّة، غارقًا في نوم اليوغا.»
Mārkaṇḍeya
Listener: Yudhiṣṭhira
Scene: Hari reclines on Ananta/Śeṣa upon the luminous Ocean of Milk; lotus motifs, gentle waves, celestial calm; the universe latent in his yogic sleep.

Not directly; it provides the mythic prelude that will ground the Varāha-tīrtha’s sanctity.
None.
