Srimad Bhagavatam — Ashtama Skandha, Shloka 11
The Appearance of Vāmanadeva and His Arrival at Bali’s Sacrifice
दृष्ट्वादितिस्तं निजगर्भसम्भवं परं पुमांसं मुदमाप विस्मिता । गृहीतदेहं निजयोगमायया प्रजापतिश्चाह जयेति विस्मित: ॥ ११ ॥
dṛṣṭvāditis taṁ nija-garbha-sambhavaṁ paraṁ pumāṁsaṁ mudam āpa vismitā gṛhīta-dehaṁ nija-yoga-māyayā prajāpatiś cāha jayeti vismitaḥ
Khi Aditi thấy Đấng Tối Thượng xuất hiện từ chính bào thai của mình, mang thân thể siêu việt nhờ yogamāyā của Ngài, nàng kinh ngạc và tràn đầy hoan hỷ. Thấy hài nhi ấy, Prajāpati Kaśyapa cũng vui mừng lẫn sửng sốt mà thốt lên: “Jaya! Jaya!”
