वेदवेदांगतत्त्वज्ञः शुद्धात्मा पापवर्जितः । श्रेष्ठः श्रोत्रियवान्प्राज्ञः सोऽनूचान इति स्मृतः
vedavedāṃgatattvajñaḥ śuddhātmā pāpavarjitaḥ | śreṣṭhaḥ śrotriyavānprājñaḥ so'nūcāna iti smṛtaḥ
Celui qui connaît la véritable portée du Veda et des Vedāṅga, dont l’âme est pure et exempte de péché—éminent, pourvu du savoir śrotriya et sage—est tenu pour un « anūcāna ».
Lomaharṣaṇa (Sūta), contextually within Māheśvarakhaṇḍa narration to the sages
Scene: A wise anūcāna in meditation beside a sacred fire, with manuscripts closed—signifying internalized meaning; a faint aura of purity; disciples approach with questions.
Higher religious authority requires not only learning but also purity, freedom from sin, and insight into the essence of scripture.
No tīrtha is mentioned in this verse.
None explicitly; it describes qualifications (knowledge, purity, wisdom) rather than prescribing a rite.
