Atithi-prāpti and the Brāhmaṇa’s Deliberation on Triadic Dharma (अतिथिप्राप्तिः धर्मत्रयविचारश्च)
सूर्यस्ताराधिपो वायुरग्निर्वरुण एव च । आकाशं जगती चैव ये च शेषा दिवौकस:
sūryas tārādhipo vāyur agnir varuṇa eva ca | ākāśaṃ jagatī caiva ye ca śeṣā divaukasaḥ ||
Janamejaya dijo: «El Sol, el señor de las estrellas (la Luna), el Viento, el Fuego y Varuṇa; el Cielo y la Tierra también, y todos los demás moradores del firmamento.»

The verse functions as an enumeration of cosmic powers and celestial beings, implying that dharma and worldly events are situated within a larger, ordered universe overseen by deities and elemental principles.
Janamejaya is listing प्रमुख दिव्य तत्त्व and devas—Sun, Moon, Wind, Fire, Varuṇa, Sky, Earth, and other celestials—likely as part of a broader inquiry or description that invokes the cosmic witnesses or constituents of the world.
