The Future Manus and the Avatāras in Their Manvantaras
गालवो दीप्तिमान्रामो द्रोणपुत्र: कृपस्तथा । ऋष्यशृङ्ग: पितास्माकं भगवान्बादरायण: ॥ १५ ॥ इमे सप्तर्षयस्तत्र भविष्यन्ति स्वयोगत: । इदानीमासते राजन् स्वे स्व आश्रममण्डले ॥ १६ ॥
gālavo dīptimān rāmo droṇa-putraḥ kṛpas tathā ṛṣyaśṛṅgaḥ pitāsmākaṁ bhagavān bādarāyaṇaḥ
大王啊,在第八摩奴时期,迦罗婆、迪普提曼、帕罗修罗摩、德罗那之子阿湿瓦塔摩、克利帕阿阇黎、利希耶施林伽,以及我们的父亲——那罗延化身、薄伽梵巴达罗衍·毗耶娑——将成为七圣。如今他们各自安住于自己的修行林苑。
This verse names Gālava, the radiant sage Rāma, Droṇa’s son Aśvatthāmā, Kṛpa, Ṛśyaśṛṅga, and Bādarāyaṇa (Vyāsa) among the revered sages connected with the future manvantara description.
Because the chapter catalogs the great ṛṣis who uphold dharma and transmit divine knowledge across manvantaras; Vyāsa is honored as a foundational compiler and preserver of śāstra.
It highlights the importance of receiving spiritual wisdom through authentic rishi-paramparā—seeking guidance from genuine teachers rooted in śāstra and devotion.
