Shloka 42
यत्ते भिन्नं च दग्धं च यच्च किंचिद् विनाशितम् । सर्व तथैव द्रष्टासि विशिष्ट वा जनार्दन
yat te bhinnaṃ ca dagdhaṃ ca yac ca kiṃcid vināśitam | sarvaṃ tathaiva draṣṭāsi viśiṣṭaṃ vā janārdana ||
Vāyu berkata: “Wahai Janārdana, apa pun milikmu yang telah aku pecahkan, aku bakar, atau aku musnahkan dengan cara apa sekali pun—engkau akan melihat semuanya dipulihkan seperti sediakala, bahkan dalam keadaan yang lebih baik.”
