The eleventh Manu is Dharmasavarni, master of himself; and his sons, ten of them, Satyadharma and the rest, are still to come. The gods are the Vihangamas, the Kamagamas and the Nirvanarucis, and their Indra is Vaidhrta; and the sages are Aruna and the others. There the son of Aryaka, remembered as Dharmasetu, a portion of Hari born in Vaidhrta, will hold up the three worlds. Rudrasavarni will be the twelfth Manu, king; Devavat and Upadeva and Devasrestha and the rest are his sons. Rtadhama will be the Indra there, and the gods the Haritas and the others; and the sages will be Tapomurti, Tapasvin, Agnidhraka and the rest.

A portion of Hari named Svadhaman, the mighty one, son of Satyasahas by Sunrta, will carry through the period of that Manu.
