ध्रुवस्य तपः — देवमायाविघ्नाः, विष्णोर्दर्शनम्, स्तुतिः, ध्रुवस्थानप्रदानम्
सूर्यात् सोमात् तथा भौमात् सोमपुत्राद् बृहस्पतेः सितार्कतनयादीनां सर्वर्क्षाणां तथा ध्रुव
sūryāt somāt tathā bhaumāt somaputrād bṛhaspateḥ sitārkatanayādīnāṃ sarvarkṣāṇāṃ tathā dhruva
سورج، چاند اور مریخ؛ چاند کے بیٹے (عطارد) اور بُرہسپتی؛ نیز زہرہ اور زحل وغیرہ اور تمام برجوں کے درمیان—اے دھرو—تو ان کی ترتیب کا ثابت محور بن کر قائم رہتا ہے۔
Sage Parāśara (teaching Maitreya)
Dhruva is presented as the fixed pivot—distinct from the moving planets and constellations—around which celestial order is understood.
He enumerates the luminaries—Sun, Moon, Mars, Mercury, Jupiter, Venus, and Saturn—alongside the stars, then contrasts them with Dhruva’s steadiness to emphasize cosmic structure.
By describing a precise and stable cosmic hierarchy, the Purana implicitly points to Vishnu as the supreme governor of ṛta (universal order), within which even the heavens move in regulated patterns.
