व्यासशिष्योत्पत्तिवर्णन (Origins/Enumeration of Vyāsa’s Disciplic Succession) — Chapter on Vedic Transmission Lineages
ततस्तेषां तु ये शिष्टाः शिष्टाचारान्प्रजक्षते / सप्तर्षयो मनुश्चव ह्यादौ मन्वन्तरस्य हि
tatasteṣāṃ tu ye śiṣṭāḥ śiṣṭācārānprajakṣate / saptarṣayo manuścava hyādau manvantarasya hi
Then the exemplary among them proclaim the conduct of the righteous; for at the very beginning of a manvantara, the Seven Ṛṣis and Manu are the first guides.
