Yudhiṣṭhira’s Lament and Kṛṣṇa’s Rudra-Cosmogony Explanation (सौप्तिक पर्व, अध्याय १७)
Devanagari script
भूतग्रामे विवृद्धे तु तुष्टे लोकगुरावपि । उदतिष्ठज्जलाज्ज्येष्ठ: प्रजाश्लेमा ददर्श सः,जब प्राणिसमुदायकी भलीभाँति वृद्धि हो गयी और लोकगुरु ब्रह्मा भी संतुष्ट हो गये, तब वे ज्येष्ठ पुरुष शिव जलसे बाहर निकले। निकलनेपर उन्होंने इन समस्त प्रजाओंको देखा
Translation
ప్రాణుల సమూహం బాగా వృద్ధి చెంది, లోకగురు బ్రహ్ముడూ సంతృప్తి చెందినప్పుడు, జ్యేష్ఠ పురుషుడు శివుడు జలములోనుండి పైకి లేచాడు; బయటికి వచ్చి ఆ సమస్త ప్రజలను చూశాడు।
