Mantra 15
Sukta 7
यत्रामृतं च मृत्युश्च पुरुषेऽधि समाहिते । समुद्रो यस्य नाड्यः१ पुरुषेऽधि समाहिताः स्कम्भं तं ब्रूहि कतमः स्विदेव सः
yátrāmṛ́taṃ ca mṛtyúś ca púruṣe ’dhi sámāhite | samudró yásya nā́ḍyaḥ púruṣe ’dhi sámāhitāḥ skámbhaṃ táṃ brūhi katamáḥ svìd evá sáḥ
Wherein immortality and Death are both set together in the Person; whose channels in the Person are the Ocean laid within—declare thou that Skambha: what manner of One, in very truth, is He?
在那位普鲁沙（Puruṣa）之中，不死（amṛta）与死亡（mṛtyu）同被安置、并置；其在普鲁沙之内的诸脉道（nāḍī），乃如大海（samudra）安然内藏——请宣说那支撑者斯坎婆（Skambha）：他究竟是怎样的一位，真实如是？
