Studies in the Epics and Puranas c8.95

c8.95

In the following pages the scheme of cosmogony as presented by the *Viṣṇu-Purāṇa* will be briefly dealt with, and then reference will be made to the other Purāṇas. There are, it may be observed, no material differences in the cosmogonic accounts given by the Purāṇas. Many verbatim repetitions and echoes of previous teachings will be found in the Purāṇic account, to some of which references have been made in the footnotes.
