Puruṣaikatva-vyākhyāna: The One Virāṭ Puruṣa and the Many ‘Puruṣas’
Rudra–Brahmā Saṃvāda
Devanagari script
सुरपक्षो गृहीतस्ते यस्मात् तस्माद् दिवः पत
Translation
Les sages dirent : « Ô roi, seigneur des hommes ! Bien que tu saches que “aja” signifie nourriture/grain, tu as pris le parti des dieux. C’est pourquoi, tombe du ciel. Dès ce jour, ton pouvoir de parcourir les airs est anéanti ; frappé par notre malédiction, tu fendra la terre et tu entreras en Pātāla, le monde d’en bas. »
