Āścarya-kathana: Brāhmaṇa–Nāga Dialogue on Sūrya (Vivasvat) and the ‘Second Sun’ Phenomenon
ततः प्रावर्तत तदा आदौ कृतयुगं शुभम् । ततो हि सात्वतो धर्मो व्याप्प लोकानवस्थित:,फिर तो सृष्टिके आरम्भमें कल्याणकारी कृतयुगकी प्रवृत्ति हुई और तबसे सात्वतधर्म सारे संसारमें व्याप्त हो गया
tataḥ prāvartata tadā ādau kṛtayugaṃ śubham | tato hi sātvato dharmo vyāptaḥ lokān avasthitaḥ ||
随后，在造化之初，吉祥的劫初时代（克利多瑜伽）开始运转。自那时起，萨特瓦达摩——坚贞、清净、护持生命——遍满诸世界，并在众生之中安立。

Educational Q&A
At the dawn of creation, the ideal age (Kṛta Yuga) is characterized by the natural establishment of dharma; righteousness is not merely taught but becomes pervasive and stable across the worlds, indicating that ethical order is foundational to cosmic order.
Vaiśampāyana describes the primordial commencement of the Kṛta Yuga and states that from that beginning the Sātvata dharma spread everywhere and became firmly established among the worlds.
