This verse lists Vaivasvata Manu’s ten sons as Ikṣvāku, Nabhaga, Dhṛṣṭa, Śaryāti, Nariṣyanta, Nābhāga, Diṣṭa, Tarūṣa, Pṛṣadhra, and Vasumān.
In the context of describing manvantaras (administrations of Manus), Śukadeva outlines the dynastic lines and notable figures through whom dharma, kingship, and the Lord’s arrangements unfold in history.
They help a devotee see how divine order (dharma) is maintained through time, connect major avatars and saintly kings to their lineages, and cultivate faith that the Lord guides human society across ages.
