Translation

ໃນຫຼັກນັ້ນມີການສັ່ນໄຫວດັ່ງນ້ຳ; ຢູ່ທີ່ນັ້ນເອງ ຄວາມຮູ້ສຶກວ່າ “ຂ້ອຍ” (ahaṃkṛti) ເກີດຂຶ້ນ. ກ້ອນຮ່າງກາຍ (piṇḍa) ຈຶ່ງເປັນຫ້າປະການ ຖືກຜູກມັດດ້ວຍທາດຮ່າງກາຍ (dhātu) ແລະປະກອບດ້ວຍກຸນະ (guṇa)

Academic Translation

In that (principle) there was a quivering, as of water; there the I-notion (ahaṃkṛti) arose. The embodied mass (piṇḍa) became fivefold in nature, bound by the bodily constituents (dhātus) and constituted of the guṇas.

Verse Context

• Ahaṃkāra (ego-sense) and the emergence of the body-mind from prakṛti/guṇas
• Mahavakya: Indirectly supports “ahaṃ brahmāsmi” by distinguishing the arising ego/body from the underlying reality; points to disidentification from ahaṃkāra.
• Krishna Yajurveda
• Chandas: Anuṣṭubh (śloka)
