Translation
Er trägt die Gestalt eines wie wahnsinnigen Asketen, und doch bleibt er verborgen jenseits gewöhnlicher Erkenntnis. Er ist die Welt aller Wesen selbst, Prajāpati, Herr der Nachkommenschaft. Weit in der Form und kosmisch im Leib, nimmt er jede Gestalt an; seine Herrlichkeit ist unermesslich — Śiva, der Pati, der alles überragt und alles durchdringt.
