Vaṃśānuvārṇana and the Transition to the Fourth (Upasaṃhāra) Pada
सप्तर्षयः प्रपश्यन्ति स्वप्नं कालं स्वरात्रिषु / कल्पानां परमेष्टि त्वात्तस्मादाद्यः स पठ्यते
saptarṣayaḥ prapaśyanti svapnaṃ kālaṃ svarātriṣu / kalpānāṃ parameṣṭi tvāttasmādādyaḥ sa paṭhyate
The Seven Ṛṣis behold, in their own nights, time as though a dream; and because he is Parameṣṭhī over the kalpas, he is therefore called the First.
