गोवर्धनोत्तरविस्मयः, रासलीलाप्रसङ्गः, तथा सर्वव्याप्तिवेदान्तोपदेशः

長い道行きには向かず、腰の重みで歩みは緩やかになる。だが目的地に至るべき時は素早く進み、踏み出すたび足先を低く置く。
Sage Parāśara (narrating to Maitreya)
They function as narrative characterization within dynastic episodes, helping identify persons and scenes in the lineage stories rather than presenting direct cosmological doctrine.
He narrates genealogies and associated episodes to Maitreya, frequently pausing for vivid scene-setting and character description to make lineage narratives intelligible and memorable.
Even when a verse is primarily descriptive, it sits within a Purāṇic framework where dynastic history unfolds under Vishnu’s sovereign order—history and character are narrated as part of dharma sustained by the Supreme.
