Devanagari script
वाड्मन:कर्मयज्ञश्व भविष्याम्युदगायने । सूर्यके उत्तरायण होनेपर शान्तिमय यज्ञमें तत्पर
Translation
Lorsque le Soleil entrera en Uttarāyaṇa (sa marche vers le nord), je m’appliquerai au yajña de paix : maître de mes sens, voué au Brahma-yajña et porté à la méditation. J’accomplirai les trois yajñas : le Vāk-yajña—sacrifice de la parole, sous forme de japa et de svādhyāya (récitation et étude sacrée) ; le Mano-yajña—sacrifice de l’esprit, sous forme de méditation ; et le Karma-yajña—sacrifice de l’acte, en accomplissant les œuvres prescrites par le śāstra sans désir de fruit (niṣkāma).
