Atithi-prāpti and the Brāhmaṇa’s Deliberation on Triadic Dharma (अतिथिप्राप्तिः धर्मत्रयविचारश्च)
महाभूताधिपतये रुद्राणां पतये तथा । आदित्यपतये चैव वसूनां पतये तथा,वे ही महाभूतोंके अधिपति तथा रुद्रों, आदित्यों और वसुओंके स्वामी हैं। उन्हें नमस्कार करो
mahābhūtādhipataye rudrāṇāṁ pataye tathā | ādityapataye caiva vasūnāṁ pataye tathā ||
Vyāsa berkata: “Persembahkanlah penghormatan kepada-Nya, penguasa unsur-unsur agung, tuan bagi para Rudra, tuan bagi para Āditya, dan demikian juga tuan bagi para Vasu.”
