Shloka 2
नाग उवाच आश्षर्याणामनेकानां प्रतिष्ठा भगवान् रवि: । यतो भूता: प्रवर्तन्ते सर्वे त्रैलोक्यसम्मता:,नागने कहा--ब्रह्मन! भगवान् सूर्य तो अनेकानेक आश्वर्योके स्थान हैं; क्योंकि तीनों लोकोंमें जितने भी प्राणी हैं, वे सब उन्हींसे प्रेरित होकर अपने-अपने कार्योँमें प्रवृत्त होते हैं
nāga uvāca āścaryāṇām anekānāṁ pratiṣṭhā bhagavān raviḥ | yato bhūtāḥ pravartante sarve trailokya-sammatāḥ ||
Dijo el Nāga: «Oh brahmán, el bendito Sol es el fundamento y sostén perdurable de innumerables maravillas. Pues de él proviene el impulso por el cual todos los seres—reconocidos en los tres mundos—se ponen en actividad y cumplen cada cual su deber.»
