The Future Manus and the Avatāras in Their Manvantaras
विवस्वतश्च द्वे जाये विश्वकर्मसुते उभे । संज्ञा छाया च राजेन्द्र ये प्रागभिहिते तव ॥ ८ ॥
vivasvataś ca dve jāye viśvakarma-sute ubhe saṁjñā chāyā ca rājendra ye prāg abhihite tava
Hỡi Đại vương, Vivasvān có hai hiền thê là hai ái nữ của Viśvakarmā, tên Saṁjñā và Chāyā; điều ấy ta đã thuật cho ngài từ trước.
They are described as the two wives of Vivasvān (the sun-god), both being daughters of Viśvakarmā.
Because this chapter continues a genealogical narration connected to the Manus, and Śukadeva references earlier explanations to keep the lineage account coherent for Parīkṣit.
The Bhagavatam often teaches through sacred lineages—encouraging readers to study spiritual teachings in context, with continuity and attentiveness rather than as isolated quotes.
