Ganito sa Śrī Brahmāṇḍa Mahāpurāṇa, sa unang bahagi na ipinahayag ni Vāyu, sa ikalawang anuṣaṅga-pāda, ang ikatatlumpung kabanata na tinatawag na “Pagpapasimula ng Yajña.” Wika ni Sūta: Mula rito ay ipaliliwanag kong muli ang tuntunin ng Dvāpara; kapag humina at nagwakas ang Tretā-yuga, pumapasok ang Dvāpara-yuga.
