Scene: A luminous white-form Viṣṇu (śveta-varṇa), serene and radiant, presiding over a harmonious world; sages and devotees in calm worship; symbolic yuga-wheel nearby.
Each yuga has a characteristic dharmic atmosphere, reflected even in the Lord’s manifested qualities described by the Purāṇas.
Not specified in this verse; it provides yuga-context within the surrounding tīrtha narrative.
None in this verse; it is descriptive (yuga duration and Viṣṇu’s form).
