वसिष्ठं च महाभागमित्येते सप्त मानसाः । इत्येते ब्राह्मणाः सप्त पुराणे निश्चयं गताः
vasiṣṭhaṃ ca mahābhāgamityete sapta mānasāḥ | ityete brāhmaṇāḥ sapta purāṇe niścayaṃ gatāḥ
اور نہایت بابرکت وَسِشٹھ—یہی سات منس-جات رِشی ہیں۔ یوں پورانک روایت میں یہی سات برہمن قطعی طور پر ثابت و قائم مانے گئے ہیں۔
Sūta (Lomaharṣaṇa) narrating
Tirtha: Revā-kṣetra
Type: kshetra
Scene: A didactic tableau: the seven sages appear as a complete set—Marīci, Atri, Aṅgiras, Pulastya, Pulaha, Kratu, Vasiṣṭha—arrayed like a constellation; Kṛṣṇa or narrator gestures as if enumerating them; a subtle cosmic backdrop suggests ‘mānasa’ origin.
Reverence for the primordial sages safeguards tradition; Purāṇic memory anchors dharma through recognized lineages.
The Revā/Narmadā sacred landscape, where the presence and remembrance of ṛṣis heighten the sanctity of rites.
No direct rite is prescribed here; it establishes the authoritative identity of the seven sages who are to be honored.
