ṣaḍ ete manavo 'tītāḥ sāmprataṃ tu raveḥ sutaḥ
vaivasvato 'yaṃ yasyaitat saptamaṃ vartate 'ntaram //
The first Manu was Swáyambhuva, then came Swárochisha, then Auttami, then Támasa, then Raivata, then Chákshusha: these six Manus have passed away. The Manu who presides over the seventh Manwantara, which is the present period, is Vaivaswata, the son of the sun.
