1,2. Lineage of teachers :

1."Om brahmā devānām prathamaḥ sambabhūva 

viśvasya kartā bhuvanasya goptā, 

sa brahma-vidyāṁ sarva-vidyā-pratiṣṭhām 

arthavāya jyeṣṭha-putrāya prāha."

"Of the Gods, Brahmaji the  Creator and the protector of the universe was self=born first. He gave out the knowledge of Reality (Brahma Vidya), the knowledge of  all knowledges, the foundation for all sciences, to his own eldest son Athaeva."

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

2."Artharvaṇe yām pravadeta brahmātharvā 

tām purovācāṅgire brahma-vidyām, 

sa bhāradvājāya satyavahaye

prāha bhāradvājo’ngirase parāvarām."

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"The very knowledgewhich Brahmaji taught to Atharva, he taught to Angiin ancient days and he taught to Rishi Satyavaha- of the Bharadvaja clan and Satyavahataught it to Angira -mthe knowledge was so handed  down from the greater(teacher) to the lesser (disciple)."
