Garuḍa–Śakra Saṃvāda and the Retrieval of Amṛta (गरुड–शक्र संवादः अमृत-अपहरण-प्रसङ्गः)
समर्थों बलिनां श्रेष्ठो हर्तु सोम॑ं विहंगम: । सर्व सम्भावयाम्यस्मिन्नसा ध्यमपि साधयेत्,बलवानोंमें श्रेष्ठ आकाशचारी गरुड अमृत हर ले जानेमें समर्थ हैं। मैं उनमें सब प्रकारकी शक्तियोंके होनेकी सम्भावना करता हूँ। वे असाध्य कार्य भी सिद्ध कर सकते हैं
samartho balināṃ śreṣṭho hartuṃ somaṃ vihaṅgamaḥ | sarvaṃ sambhāvayāmy asminn asādhyam api sādhayet ||
カश्यパは言った。「あの鳥は成し遂げ得る――剛力の者のうちでも最たる者として――ソーマを奪い去ることができる。彼にはあらゆる力が備わると私は見ている。成し難き業すら成就し得るのだ。」
