Adhyaya 45 — Jaimini’s Cosmological Questions and the Opening of Markandeya’s Account of Primary Creation
तेन सर्वमिदं व्याप्तं त्रैलोक्यं सचराचरम् ।
मेरुस्तस्यानुसंभूतो जरायुश्चापि पर्वताः ॥
tena sarvam idaṃ vyāptaṃ trailokyaṃ sacarācaram | merus tasyānusambhūto jarāyuś cāpi parvatāḥ
সেই তত্ত্ব দ্বারা চল-অচলসহ সমগ্র ত্রিলোক ব্যাপ্ত হল। সেই মহাণ্ড থেকে মেরু উদ্ভূত হল, আর পর্বতসমূহ যেন তার জরায়ু-ঝিল্লির ন্যায় ছিল।
