इत्युक्ते सर्वमेवैतदभवत् तपसा मुने: । तस्य दीप्ताग्निमहसस्त्वगस्त्यस्यातितेजस:
Vaiśampāyana uvāca |
ity ukte sarvam evaitad abhavat tapasā muneḥ |
tasya dīptāgnimahas tv Agastyasyātitejasaḥ ||
ໄວສັມປາຍະນະ ກ່າວວ່າ: «ເມື່ອໄດ້ກ່າວຄໍານັ້ນແລ້ວ ທຸກສິ່ງກໍເກີດຂຶ້ນຈິງ ໂດຍອໍານາດຕະປະຂອງມຸນີ. ພຣະິອະກັດສະຕະ—ຜູ້ມີລັດສະໝີດັ່ງໄຟລຸກໂຊນ ແລະສົດໃສເຫນືອຜູ້ອື່ນ—ໄດ້ໃຊ້ພະລັງຕະປະເຮັດໃຫ້ສິ່ງທີ່ປາຖະໜາປາກົດຂຶ້ນ.»

Educational Q&A
The verse highlights the efficacy of tapas: disciplined austerity and spiritual force make intentions and spoken resolutions bear tangible results, presenting ascetic power as a morally grounded potency rather than mere display.
After certain words are spoken, the narrator states that everything intended immediately comes to pass due to the sage’s tapas—specifically attributing the manifestation to the extraordinary radiance and power of Agastya.
