The imperishable origin of the gods, having bowed his head, said to him: In the exposition of the Veda, the Veda should be followed by you, O best of the wise. Therefore, O sage, do as I have instructed in this speech. (12-337-39)
तेन भिन्नास्तदा वेदा मनोः स्वायम्भुवेऽन्तरे। ततस्तुतोष भगवान्हरिस्तेनास्य कर्मणा ॥ तपसा च सुतप्तेन यमेन नियमेन च ॥१२-३३७-४०॥
At that time, during the interval of Svāyambhuva Manu, the Vedas were divided by him; then Lord Hari was pleased with him for this act, as well as for his austerity, well-performed penance, self-restraint, and observances. (12-337-40)
श्रीभगवानुवाच॥
The blessed Lord said.
मन्वन्तरेषु पुत्र त्वमेवं लोकप्रवर्तकः। भविष्यस्यचलो ब्रह्मन्नप्रधृष्यश्च नित्यशः ॥१२-३३७-४१॥

He whom they call the mind-born son, endowed with the supreme wisdom of the grandsire—Vasiṣṭha, foremost and repository of austerity—who also shines surpassing even the sun. (12-337-47)

In his lineage, from him, there was the great sage named Parāśara, of great power; he, your father, was the most excellent treasure of the Vedas, and of great austerity, truly an abode of penance. Born in the womb of an unmarried girl, in the daughter of the father; from that sage, you too will be born as a son. (12-337-48)

निःसंशयेषु सर्वेषु नित्यं वसति वै हरिः। ससंशयान्हेतुबलान्नाध्यावसति माधवः ॥१२-३३७-६६॥
Hari always dwells in all who are without doubt; Mādhava does not abide in those with doubt, due to the force of reasoning. (12-337-66)

Any auspicious or inauspicious action that is set in motion, whatever proceeds in all worlds, should be known as originating from the seer; thus it manifests in the divine, in the sky, on earth, and also in the waters. (12-337-69)
