मानससृष्टिः, रुद्रोत्पत्तिः, मन्वादिवंशः, प्रलयचतुष्टयम्
प्रसूत्यां च तथा दक्षश् चतस्रो विंशतिं तथा ससर्ज कन्यास् तासां तु सम्यङ् नामानि मे शृणु
prasūtyāṃ ca tathā dakṣaś catasro viṃśatiṃ tathā sasarja kanyās tāsāṃ tu samyaṅ nāmāni me śṛṇu
ហើយពីប្រសូតី ដក្ខៈបានបង្កើតកូនស្រីចំនួនម្ភៃបួន។ ឥឡូវនេះ សូមស្តាប់ពីខ្ញុំដោយប្រុងប្រយ័ត្ន នាមត្រឹមត្រូវរបស់ពួកនាង។
Sage Parāśara (narrating to Maitreya)
They form a key genealogical bridge in prajā-sarga: through their marriages, many classes of beings and lineages unfold, organizing creation into an intelligible cosmic order.
Parāśara presents creation as structured and sequential: Dakṣa, through Prasūti, generates a defined number of daughters, whose names and unions will be enumerated as the next step in the narrative.
Even when Vishnu is not named in the verse, the Purāṇic genealogy functions as an expression of divine sovereignty—creation proceeds in ordered lineages under the ultimate ground of reality attributed to Vishnu.
