Vāyu-deva sprach: „Er ist die Fessel selbst und zugleich der Schöpfer der Fessel; und doch ist Er der Befreier aus den festesten Banden. Er steht bei denen, die dem Opfer (yajña) Dakṣas widerstehen, und bei denen, die das Begehren bezwungen haben. Er ist der Großzahnige und der Träger mächtiger Waffen.“
