Ṛṣi-lineage register

Pravara chains of the founding ṛṣis.

A pravara is the formal recitation of a founding sage and the ancestral ṛṣis a gotra traces its patriline to. Many gotras recite the exact same pravara — this register groups the registry's gotras by their shared ṛṣi chains, the same axis the pravara-prohibition marriage rule is checked on.
