तस्मिन्मन्वन्तरे चैव मन्वादिगणपूर्वक: । त्वमेव भविता वत्स मत्प्रसादान्न संशय:
tasmin manvantare caiva manvādigaṇapūrvakaḥ | tvam eva bhavitā vatsa matprasādān na saṁśayaḥ ||
毗舍波耶那说道：“在那摩奴劫中亦复如是——于以摩奴为首的诸群之上——唯有你一人，爱子啊，将凭我恩惠而成为最上者；此事毫无疑问。”

Educational Q&A
The verse emphasizes that rightful status and leadership within cosmic and moral order are ultimately grounded in merit affirmed by spiritual authority and grace; assurance (na saṁśayaḥ) underscores the certainty of ordained responsibility.
Vaiśampāyana reports a pronouncement that, in a future Manvantara, the addressed person will stand foremost among the assemblies associated with Manu, attaining that position through the speaker’s favor and blessing.
