The Consecration (Anointing) of Indra
तवैव तपसा पुष्टस्तेजसा च प्रवर्द्धितः । अद्यैव गर्भमेतं त्वं मुंच मुंच यशस्विनि
tavaiva tapasā puṣṭastejasā ca pravarddhitaḥ | adyaiva garbhametaṃ tvaṃ muṃca muṃca yaśasvini
Pinatibay ng iyong tapas at pinalago ng iyong maningning na kapangyarihan—pakawalan mo na ngayon din ang sanggol na ito, pakawalan, O marangal at tanyag na ginang.

Concept: Austerity is meant to culminate in timely action; spiritual power (tejas) should serve dharma through decisive, appropriate release into the world.
Application: After preparation, act without hesitation: complete the task your discipline was meant to enable; avoid endless ‘getting ready’ when the moment calls for execution.
