Rta and Spiritual Authority

Succession and priesthood: added about the Purohit and translated English words to Sanskrit ones

@@ Line 31: / Line 31: @@
 ==Succession and priesthood==
 Succeeding members of the Divine Council and succeeding rishis weren't many times as pious, and even became corrupted, but none of them are worshiped or held in high esteem, only the original persons. Most [[Who is a Hindu?|Hindus]] of the Indian Subcontinent claim to be a member of a [[gotra|pravara rishi gotra]], meaning lineage from the original Saptarishis. The descendants don't hold the title or being 'rishis' because the definition is based on spiritual performance, but anyone (even persons not descended from rishis) can ascend to the level of a rishi by works. So even though someone may claim to have spiritual authority (i.e., through lineage, caste, etc), it wouldn’t be legitimate. Persons can ascend to achieve spiritual authority by performing austerities.
