Adhyaya 52 — The Manifestation of Nilalohita (Rudra) and the Allocation of His Names, Abodes, Consorts, and Lineages
पत्नी मरीचेः सम्भूतिः पौर्णमासमसूयत ।
विराजाः पर्वतश्चैव तस्य पुत्रौ महात्मनः ॥
patnī marīceḥ sambhūtiḥ paurṇamāsam asūyata | virajāḥ parvataś caiva tasya putrau mahātmanaḥ ||
Sambhūti, vợ của Marīci, sinh ra Paurṇamāsa. Và Virajā cùng Parvata là hai người con trai của bậc đại tâm ấy.
By connecting progeny with ritual-sounding names (Paurṇamāsa), the text suggests that cosmic and social continuity is maintained through yajña/ṛta-aligned rhythms.
Vaṁśa: enumeration of Prajāpati descendants.
Paurṇamāsa evokes the full-moon sacrificial cycle; symbolically, genealogy mirrors lunar periodicity—recurrence, nourishment, and regulated time.
