Shloka 12
स्तम्बमित्र उवाच सर्वमग्ने त्वमेवैकस्त्वयि सर्वमिदं जगत् । त्वं धारयसि भूतानि भुवनं त्वं बिभर्षि च,स्तम्बमित्रने कहा--अग्ने! एकमात्र आप ही सब कुछ हैं, यह सम्पूर्ण जगत् आपमें ही प्रतिष्ठित है। आप ही प्राणियोंका पालन और जगत्को धारण करते हैं
Stambhamitra uvāca—sarvam agne tvam evaikaḥ tvayi sarvam idaṃ jagat | tvaṃ dhārayasi bhūtāni bhuvanaṃ tvaṃ bibharṣi ca ||
Stambhamitra sprach: „O Agni, du allein bist alles. Diese ganze Welt ruht in dir. Du erhältst die Wesen, und du trägst auch den gesamten Kosmos.“
स्तम्बमित्र उवाच
Educational Q&A
The verse expresses a devotional and theological vision in which Agni is praised as the single sustaining principle: all existence is said to rest in him, and he is portrayed as the supporter and bearer of beings and the cosmos—an affirmation of divine immanence and cosmic maintenance.
Stambhamitra addresses Agni directly in a hymn-like utterance, offering exalted praise that frames Agni not merely as physical fire but as a cosmic power responsible for sustaining life and upholding the world.
