Genealogies of Svāyambhuva Manu, the Appearance of Yajña, and Atri’s Sons
Brahmā–Viṣṇu–Śiva Expansions
सोमोऽभूद्ब्रह्मणोंऽशेन दत्तो विष्णोस्तु योगवित् । दुर्वासा: शङ्करस्यांशो निबोधाङ्गिरस: प्रजा: ॥ ३३ ॥
somo ’bhūd brahmaṇo ’ṁśena datto viṣṇos tu yogavit durvāsāḥ śaṅkarasyāṁśo nibodhāṅgirasaḥ prajāḥ
其后,由梵天之分显而生苏摩(月神);由毗湿奴之分显而生通晓瑜伽的大圣达塔特雷亚;由商羯罗之分显而生杜尔瓦萨。如今请听我述说安吉罗的众多子嗣。
This verse states that Dattātreya, renowned as a master of yoga, appeared as an expansion of Lord Viṣṇu.
He is outlining sacred genealogies and identifying notable beings as partial manifestations of the principal deities, before continuing with the lineage of Aṅgirā.
It encourages reverence for authentic spiritual lineages and reminds seekers to see extraordinary sages and deities in relation to the Supreme Lord’s divine arrangement.
