Reconciliation of Action and Knowledge: Offering All Acts to Nārāyaṇa and the Hymn to the Yajña-Puruṣa
श्रीवराह उवाच । नमामि याज्यं त्रिदशाधिपस्य भवस्य सूर्यस्य हुताशनस्य । सोमस्य राज्ञो मरुतामनेक-रूपं हरिं यज्ञनरं नमस्ये ॥ ५.४६ ॥
śrīvarāha uvāca | namāmi yājyaṃ tridaśādhipasya bhavasya sūryasya hutāśanasya | somasya rājño marutām aneka-rūpaṃ hariṃ yajña-naraṃ namasye || 5.46 ||
ศรีวราหะตรัสว่า “ข้าพเจ้าขอนอบน้อมแด่พระหริผู้ควรแก่การบูชา ผู้ปรากฏเป็นจอมเทพ เป็นภวะ (ศิวะ) เป็นสุริยะ เป็นหุตาศนะ (อัคนี) เป็นพระโสมราชา และเป็นหมู่มรุต ผู้มีรูปอเนก; ข้าพเจ้าขอนมัสการพระหริผู้เป็นยัญญบุรุษ”
Varāha
It preserves a Purāṇic strategy of theological synthesis, presenting major Vedic and post-Vedic divine functions (Indra-like sovereignty, Śiva as Bhava, Sūrya, Agni, Soma, and the Maruts) as manifestations within a single devotional address, reflecting the integrative tendencies of Purāṇic literature.
No geographic toponym appears in this verse; it is an invocatory and doctrinal statement rather than a sacred-geography passage.
A philosophical discipline of reverence and conceptual unity: the verse models honoring the sacred through multiple cosmic and ritual forms, encouraging a non-exclusive understanding of divine functions within a single framework of worship and reflection.
