तस्यैष आदेशो यदेतद्विद्युतो विद्युतदिति न्यमीमिषदिति । अधिदैवतम् ॥४॥
तस्य । एषः । आदेशः । यत् । एतत् । विद्युतः । विद्युतत् । इति । न्यमीमिषत् । इति । अधिदैवतम् ॥४॥
tasya eṣa ādeśo yad etad vidyuto vidyutad iti nyamīmiṣad iti | adhidaivatam ||4||
അതിന്റെ ഈ സൂചന: ‘മിന്നലുപോലെ—അതേ മിന്നൽ-ഝലകം’; ‘അത് കണ്ണിറുക്കുന്നതുപോലെ (പ്രത്യക്ഷമായി മറഞ്ഞു)’. ഇത് അധിദൈവത നിലയിൽ പറയുന്നു.
Of That, this is the indication: ‘as of lightning—(it is) the flash’; ‘it winked (appeared and vanished)’. This is with reference to the deity-plane (adhidaivata).
- तस्यैष = तस्य + एषः
- यदेतद् = यत् + एतत्
- विद्युतो विद्युतदिति = विद्युतः + विद्युतत् + इति
- न्यमीमिषदिति = न्य्(नि-) + अमीमिषत् + इति
