Samantapañcaka at Kurukṣetra: Paraśurāma’s Tīrtha-Creation and Pitṛ-Rites (समन्तपञ्चक-तीर्थप्रशंसा)
ब्रह्मत्वमकरोत्तस्य मार्कण्डेयो महामुनिः / भरद्वाजाग्निवेश्याद्या वेद वेदाङ्गपारगाः
brahmatvamakarottasya mārkaṇḍeyo mahāmuniḥ / bharadvājāgniveśyādyā veda vedāṅgapāragāḥ
In that rite, the great sage Mārkaṇḍeya fulfilled the office of brahman; and Bharadvāja, Agniveśya, and others were masters of the Vedas and the Vedāṅgas.
