अपि॒ तेषु॑ त्रि॒षु प॒देष्व॑स्मि॒ येषु॒ विश्वं॒ भुव॑नमा वि॒वेश॑ । स॒द्यः पर्ये॑मि पृथि॒वीमु॒त द्यामेके॒नाङ्गे॑न दि॒वो अ॒स्य पृ॒ष्ठम्

Translation

เราก็อยู่ในสามก้าวนั้นด้วย ในก้าวทั้งสามนั้นเอง โลกทั้งปวงแห่งภาวะได้เข้าไปสถิตแล้ว. ทันใดนั้นเราครอบคลุมแผ่นดิน และครอบคลุมสวรรค์ด้วย; ด้วยอวัยวะเพียงหนึ่ง เราสัมผัสแผ่นหลังแห่งฟากฟ้านั้น.
