Initiation for the Four Social Orders, Sandhyā Mantra Procedure, and the Merit of Offering Water in a Copper Vessel
मन्त्रः — भवोद्भवमादिव्यक्तरूपमादित्यं सर्वे देवा ब्रह्मरुद्रेन्द्रास्त्वां च ॥ कृष्णे यथासीद्ध्यानयोगस्थितास्ते सन्ध्यासंस्था वासुदेवं नमन्ति ॥
mantraḥ — bhavodbhavam ādivyaktarūpam ādityaṃ sarve devā brahmarudrendrās tvāṃ ca || kṛṣṇe yathāsīd dhyānayogasthitās te sandhyāsaṃsthā vāsudevaṃ namanti
Mantra: „Du bist der Ursprung des Werdens, die uranfänglich offenbarte Gestalt — die Sonne. Alle Devas, zusammen mit Brahmā, Rudra und Indra, und auch Du, sind gegenwärtig. Wie sie im Dhyāna-Yoga in Kṛṣṇa gefestigt waren, so verneigen sich die in der Sandhyā-Übung Stehenden vor Vāsudeva.“
