auttamastāmasaścaiva raivataścākṣuṣastathā /
ṣaḍete manavo 'tītāstathā vaivasvato 'dhunā //

At first was the Manu Svāyambhuva, then the Manu Svārociṣa, Auttama,[3] and Tāmasa, Raivata, and Cākṣuṣa; these six Manus have passed, and Vaivasvata is the Manu now. These are to come, the five Sāvarṇas and Raucya, and Bhautya.[4] Of these I will tell thee fully afterwards in connexion with their respective Manvantaras, and of their gods and ṛṣis, and the lords of the Yakṣas and the Pitṛs who lived during each, of their commencement and end, O brahman.
