भीष्मस्योत्तरायणप्रतीक्षा तथा युधिष्ठिरागमनम् | Bhīṣma’s uttarāyaṇa moment and Yudhiṣṭhira’s arrival
महावराहं त॑ देवं॑ सर्वलोकपितामहम् । अहं चैव नमस्यामि नित्यमेव जगत्पतिम्,मैं भी महावराहरूप धारण करनेवाले उन सर्वलोक-पितामह जगदीश्वरको नित्य प्रणाम करता हूँ
mahāvarāhaṃ taṃ devaṃ sarvalokapitāmaham | ahaṃ caiva namasyāmi nityam eva jagatpatim ||
Aku juga sentiasa menunduk menyembah Tuhan ilahi itu yang mengambil rupa Mahāvarāha—datuk segala alam, penguasa jagat raya. Aku pun tanpa henti mempersembahkan penghormatan kepada Tuan semesta.
