The Future Manus and the Avatāras in Their Manvantaras
सत्रायणस्य तनयो बृहद्भानुस्तदा हरि: । वितानायां महाराज क्रियातन्तून्वितायिता ॥ ३५ ॥
satrāyaṇasya tanayo bṛhadbhānus tadā hariḥ vitānāyāṁ mahārāja kriyā-tantūn vitāyitā
Tâu Đại vương Parīkṣit, trong manvantara thứ mười bốn, Śrī Hari sẽ xuất hiện từ thai mẹ Vitānā, với Satrāyaṇa là phụ thân. Hóa thân ấy được tôn xưng là Bṛhadbhānu và sẽ thiết lập các hành trì tâm linh.
This verse states that Lord Hari appeared as Bṛhadbhānu and arranged the principles of Vedic ritual activity in the sacrificial arena, showing that yajña and dharma ultimately rest on the Lord’s guidance.
In the manvantara descriptions, Śukadeva lists the Lord’s incarnations and their functions; here he highlights an appearance of Hari connected with organizing Vedic rites, illustrating how the Lord sustains cosmic order.
It encourages aligning one’s duties with devotion and scriptural principles—offering work and worship as service to Hari—rather than treating spiritual practice as independent of the Lord.
