Devanagari script
यर्थर्तुवर्षी भगवान् न तथा पाकशासन: । न चापि सर्वबीजानि सम्यगू रोहन्ति भारत,भगवान् इन्द्र भी ठीक वर्षाऋतुके समय जलकी वर्षा नहीं करेंगे। भारत! भूमिमें बोये हुए सभी बीज ठीकसे नहीं जमेंगे
Transliteration
yathā ṛtuvarṣī bhagavān na tathā pākaśāsanaḥ | na cāpi sarvabījāni samyag urohanti bhārata ||
Translation
Vaiśaṃpāyana said: “Just as the blessed Lord sends rain in its proper season, so too must Pākaśāsana (Indra) act in due order. If he does not pour down water at the right time, then, O Bhārata, even seeds sown in the earth will not sprout properly.”
