समागमे च भेदे च पश्यन्ति युगपत्प्रजाः ऋतवः षट् स्मृताः सर्वे समागच्छन्ति पञ्चधा

Transliteration

samāgame ca bhede ca paśyanti yugapatprajāḥ ṛtavaḥ ṣaṭ smṛtāḥ sarve samāgacchanti pañcadhā

Translation

時の区分が合し、また離れるところで、衆生は重なり合う移り変わりを同時に見る。季節は六つと記憶されるが、秩序ある「時」の流れの中では五つの相として合流し働く—束縛されたパシュ（paśu）のためにカーラ（kāla）を調御する主宰者パティとしてのマハーデーヴァの顕れである。
