Shloka 35
तद् रेत: स तु जग्राह कलशे वै महातपा: । सप्तधा प्रविभागं तु कलशस्थं जगाम ह,महातपस्वी मुनिने उस वीर्यको एक कलशमें ले लिया। कलशमें स्थित होनेपर वह वीर्य सात भागोंमें विभक्त हो गया
tad retaḥ sa tu jagrāha kalaśe vai mahātapāḥ | saptadhā pravibhāgaṃ tu kalaśasthaṃ jagāma ha |
ವೈಶಂಪಾಯನನು ಹೇಳಿದನು— ಆ ಮಹಾತಪಸ್ವಿ ಆ ವೀರ್ಯವನ್ನು ಒಂದು ಕಲಶದಲ್ಲಿ ಸಂಗ್ರಹಿಸಿದನು. ಕಲಶದಲ್ಲಿ ನೆಲಸಿದ ತಕ್ಷಣವೇ ಅದು ಏಳು ಭಾಗಗಳಾಗಿ ವಿಭಜಿತವಾಯಿತು.
