Adhyaya 53 — Rudrasarga and the Measure of the Manvantaras: Svayambhuva Manu, Priyavrata’s Line, and the Seven Dvipas
तथैव शाल्मले तेषां समनामानि सप्त वै । सप्त मेधातिथेः पुत्राः प्लक्षद्वीपेश्वरस्य वै ॥
tathaiva śālmale teṣāṃ samanāmāni sapta vai | sapta medhātitheḥ putrāḥ plakṣadvīpeśvarasya vai ||
Demikian juga di Śālmaladvīpa, sesungguhnya ada tujuh wilayah yang menyandang nama yang sama seperti mereka. Dan Medhātithi, tuan Plakṣadvīpa, mempunyai tujuh orang putera.

Continuity and replicable order are emphasized: each dvīpa follows a recognizable template of division and naming, reinforcing cosmic regularity.
Vamśa within cosmographic Sarga/Pratisarga-style material.
‘Samanāma’ (same-named) suggests resonance across planes—patterns repeat across realms, hinting at fractal-like cosmic design.
