The Lamentation Concerning Yama
अप्रमाणमहं मन्ये लोकं विष्णोर्जगत्पते । यो न पूर्यति लोकौघैः सर्वसत्वसरोरुहैः ॥ २ ॥
apramāṇamahaṃ manye lokaṃ viṣṇorjagatpate | yo na pūryati lokaughaiḥ sarvasatvasaroruhaiḥ || 2 ||
Ich halte die Welt Viṣṇus, des Herrn des Universums, für jenseits allen Maßes—denn sie wird niemals voll, selbst nicht durch die unzähligen Scharen von Welten, mit allen Wesen, die darin wie Lotosblüten emporwachsen.
