तस्मिन् धर्मे स्थिता देवा: सहाचार्यपुरोहिताः। आदित्या वसवो रुद्राः ससाध्या मरुदतश्विनः॥ भृग्वत्र्यङ्गिरसः सिद्धाः काश्यपाश्च तपोधनाः। वसिष्ठगौतमागस्त्यास्तथा नारदपर्वतौ॥ ऋषयो वालखिल्याश्च प्रभासा: सिकतास्तथा। घृतपा: सोमवायव्या वैश्वानरमरीचिपाः॥ अकृष्टाश्चैव हंसाश्च ऋषयो वाग्नियोनयः। वानप्रस्थाः पृश्नयश्च स्थिता ब्रह्मानुशासने॥
