Abstract
Answering the King’s query, Sage Suka said: “If these ten characteristics of the Puranas have to be described in a few words it will be hard. For, each has to be indicated clearly, as when the processes of buttermaking have to be described, each item from the milking to the churning has to be touched upon. Each step is important. The ten names relate to the attributes as marked out by their meanings. But the purpose of all is the gaining of the ‘butter,’ ‘liberation.’ It is for the attainment of that liberation that the ten characteristics are assumed.
