ययातिदौहित्रपुण्यसमुच्चयः | Yayāti and the Grandsons’ Consolidation of Merit
अदृश्यमानस्तान् पश्यन्नपश्यंश्न पुनः पुनः । शून्य: शून्येन मनसा प्रपतिष्यन् महीतलम्
adṛśyamānas tān paśyann apaśyaṁś ca punaḥ punaḥ | śūnyaḥ śūnyena manasā prapatiṣyan mahītalam ||
ସେ ନିଜେ ଅଦୃଶ୍ୟ ଥାଇ ମଧ୍ୟ ସେହି ଦେବଗଣଙ୍କୁ କେବେ ଦେଖୁଥିଲେ, କେବେ ପୁନଃପୁନଃ ଦେଖିପାରୁନଥିଲେ। ପୃଥିବୀତଳକୁ ପତିତ ହେବାକୁ ଯାଉଥିବାବେଳେ ସେ ଶୂନ୍ୟ ହୋଇଗଲେ; ଶୂନ୍ୟ ମନରେ ତଳକୁ ପତିତ ହେବାକୁ ଲାଗିଲେ।
