Shloka 25
प्रथमो होष देवानां मुखादग्निमजीजनत् । ग्रहैर्बहुविधै: प्राणान् संरुद्धानुत्सूजत्यपि
prathamo hi sa devānāṁ mukhād agnim ajījanat | grahair bahuvidhaiḥ prāṇān saṁruddhān utsṛjati api ||
Disse o deus Vāyu: “Ele é o primeiro entre os deuses; de sua própria boca fez nascer o Fogo (Agni). Mesmo os seres cujo sopro vital é constrangido por muitas aflições planetárias—ele os liberta, concedendo alívio do sofrimento.”
