សូតាបាននិយាយថា៖ ក្នុងបុរាណនេះឯង កាលមុន «បុរាណបុរស»—ព្រះវិញ្ញាណនៃសកលលោក—បានប្រាប់ដល់ មនុ។ ចូរស្តាប់ ហើយយល់ដឹងនូវព្រះបន្ទូលនោះ។
Sūta
Tirtha: Prabhāsa-kṣetra
Type: kshetra
Listener: Ṛṣis
Scene: Two-layer tableau: foreground Sūta speaking to sages; background visionary vignette of Purāṇa-Puruṣa (cosmic, radiant) instructing Manu seated in contemplation.
Purāṇic wisdom is sanctified by divine-cosmic authority and is transmitted through ancient lawgivers like Manu for the guidance of humanity.
The setting remains Prabhāsa-kṣetra, but this verse establishes doctrinal authority rather than describing a tīrtha.
None; it introduces a forthcoming exposition.
