Draupadī and Satyabhāmā on ethical household conduct
अस्य लोकस्य सर्वस्य य: प्रभु: परिपठ्यते । सोअन्निर्विश्वपतिर्नाम द्वितीयो वै मनो: सुत:
asya lokasya sarvasya yaḥ prabhuḥ paripaṭhyate | so 'nnirviśvapatiḥ nāma dvitīyo vai manoḥ sutaḥ ||
ಮಾರ್ಕಂಡೇಯನು ಹೇಳಿದನು—ಈ ಸಮಸ್ತ ಲೋಕದ ಪ್ರಭುವೆಂದು ಪಠಿಸಲ್ಪಟ್ಟು ಸ್ಮರಿಸಲ್ಪಡುವವನು ‘ಅನಿರ್ವಿಶ್ವಪತಿ’ ಎಂಬ ಹೆಸರಿನವನು; ಅವನು ಮನುವಿನ ಎರಡನೆಯ ಪುತ್ರನು.

Educational Q&A
The verse emphasizes traditional authority and cosmic order: the lordship of the world is affirmed through established recitation (paripaṭhyate), and that sovereignty is situated within a dharmic genealogy by identifying the ruler as a son of Manu, the archetypal lawgiver.
Mārkaṇḍeya continues a genealogical/cosmological account, identifying a world-lord by name—Anirviśvapati—and placing him in Manu’s lineage as Manu’s second son.
