In a subsequent birth of Brahman, O best of kings, viz., that which was derived from the nose of Narayana, O Bharata, the illustrious and powerful Narayana or Hari having eyes like lotus petals, himself sang this religion in the presence of Brahman. Then the son of Brahman, created by his will, viz., Sanatkumara, studied this religion.
नासिक्ये जन्मनि पुरा ब्रह्मणः पार्थिवोत्तम। धर्ममतं स्वयं देवो हरिर्नारायणः प्रभुः॥ तज्जगादारविन्दाक्षो ब्रह्मणः पश्यतस्तदा। सनत्कुमारो भगवांस्तत: प्राधीतवान् नृप॥
