MATSYAPURĀṆA. One of the eighteen Purāṇas. This Purāṇa was told to Manu Satyavrata by Mahāviṣṇu during his incarnation as Matsyu. There are thirteen thousand ślokas in it. For prosperity this Purāṇa should be given as gift on the Viṣuvat day along with the golden image of Matsya. (Chapters 2 and 272, Agni Purāṇa).
