Academic Translation

By the (Ṛgvedic) formula beginning “yat puruṣeṇa…”, the sacrifice that is creation is declared; and by it the seven enclosing-sticks (paridhi-s) and the fuel-sticks (samidh-s) are also stated.

Verse Context

• Yajña as cosmic creation (sṛṣṭi-yajña); Brahman/Puruṣa as material and efficient cause
• Mahavakya: Indirect—supports non-dual causality (Brahman as the ground of the world), aligning broadly with ‘sarvaṃ khalvidaṃ brahma’ style teaching rather than a direct Mahāvākya citation.
• Atharva
• Chandas: Anuṣṭubh (śloka-style)
