नवयोजनसाहस्रं मण्डलं सवितुः स्मृतम् । द्विगुणं सूर्यविस्तारान्मण्डलं शशिनः स्मृतम्
navayojanasāhasraṃ maṇḍalaṃ savituḥ smṛtam | dviguṇaṃ sūryavistārānmaṇḍalaṃ śaśinaḥ smṛtam
ସବିତା (ସୂର୍ଯ୍ୟ)ର ମଣ୍ଡଳ ନବସହସ୍ର ଯୋଜନ ପରିମାଣ ବୋଲି ସ୍ମୃତ; ଚନ୍ଦ୍ରମଣ୍ଡଳ ସୂର୍ଯ୍ୟବିସ୍ତାରର ଦ୍ୱିଗୁଣ ବୋଲି କୁହାଯାଏ।
Sūta (Lomaharṣaṇa) to the sages (deduced)

None.
