Parāśara accepted the advice of his grandfather. Vasiṣṭha was pleased with his grandson and at that time Pulastyamaharṣi son of Brahmā also came there. Vasiṣṭha gave arghya (water and flowers) and received him. Then Vasiṣṭha and Pulastya jointly blessed him and said he would be the author of Purāṇasaṃhitā. Thus Parāśara became the best of the Guruparamparā (traditional line of preceptors). (Chapter 1, Aṃśa 1, Viṣṇu Purāṇa).
