Translation

Personal Guidance
Śukadeva announces he will name all the daughters and their descendants who filled the three worlds. The cosmic genealogy is itself worth knowing — names matter.
Reflection Questions
- Do I treat names of sacred persons as worth memorizing, or skip them as 'just lists'?
- What lineage am I a small descendant of, and do I know its names?
