Adhyaya 91 — Cosmic Recapitulation
भूयश्च शतवार्षिक्यामनावृष्ट्यामनम्भसि ।
मुनिभिः संस्तुता भूमौ संभविश्याम्ययोनिजा ॥
bhūyaś ca śatavārṣikyām anāvṛṣṭyām anambhasi | munibhiḥ saṃstutā bhūmau saṃbhaviṣyāmy ayonijā ||
Und wiederum, wenn eine hundertjährige Dürre eintritt—wenn es weder Regen noch Wasser gibt—werde ich, von den Weisen gepriesen, auf Erden als Ayonijā erscheinen, „die nicht aus einem Mutterleib Geborene“.
