सूत उवाच । तत्रोपमन्युगोत्रा ये क्रौंचगोत्रसमुद्भवाः । कैशोर्यं गोत्रसंभूतास्त्रैवणेया द्विजोत्तमः
sūta uvāca | tatropamanyugotrā ye krauṃcagotrasamudbhavāḥ | kaiśoryaṃ gotrasaṃbhūtāstraivaṇeyā dvijottamaḥ
सूत म्हणाला—तेथे उपमन्यु-गोत्रीय, जे क्रौंच-गोत्रातून उद्भवले; तसेच कैशोर्य-गोत्रात जन्मलेले, आणि त्रैवणेय नावाचा श्रेष्ठ द्विजही (होता/ओळखला जातो)।
Sūta
Type: kshetra
Listener: Ṛṣis
Scene: Sūta’s son enumerates gotras before the sages; behind him, a stylized map-like cityscape with temples and ghats; three groups of Brahmins are shown with distinct banners labeled Upamanyu, Krauñca, Kaiśorya, and a revered Traivaṇeya dvija seated prominently.
The Purāṇa preserves dharmic memory by naming lineages connected with a sacred place and its events.
The verse continues a tīrtha-linked city narrative (“there/in that place”); the explicit place-name is not included in this excerpt.
None; this verse functions as a genealogical listing within the māhātmya.
