Auspicious ancestral rites (nāndīmukha contexts) are still governed by precise discipline; ‘wisdom’ is shown through faithful adherence to correct ritual address rather than improvisation.
This is prescriptive ācāra, serving the Purāṇic role of dharma-upadeśa. It is not a sarga/manvantara narrative unit but supports the tradition that sustains social-religious continuity.
Nāndīmukha rites unite ‘auspiciousness’ (nandi) with ancestral continuity; the Prājāpatya mode points to Prajāpati as the archetype of generativity—linking progeny, lineage, and offering.
