This verse about the southern location of the best traditions during
the Kali yuga is cited by Altekar, History of Benares from Pre-historic
Times to the Present Day, 1937, p.38, as being from "smritis like the
Vyasa". Does anyone have a more precise reference for this verse, or
anything close to it?
Many thanks,
Dominik
