ब्राह्मणस्य पूर्वतरा वृत्तिः — The Earlier Ideal Conduct of a Brahmana
River-of-Saṃsāra Metaphor
द्विजोत्तमै: सर्वगतैरभिष्टतो विदीप्ततेजा गतमन्युरी श्वर: । प्रशान्तचेता मुदितः स्वमालयं त्रिविष्टपं प्राप्प मुमोद वासव:
dvijottamaiḥ sarvagatair abhiṣṭato vidīptatejā gatamanyur īśvaraḥ | praśāntacetā muditaḥ svam ālayaṃ triviṣṭapaṃ prāpya mumoda vāsavaḥ ||
毗湿摩说：最上等的婆罗门——其威德遍及四方——从各处赞颂因陀罗。天主因陀罗光辉炽盛而无嗔怒，遂得澄然安定。瓦萨瓦心神宁息、喜悦满怀，回到自己的居处——三十三天之天界（Triviṣṭapa），并在彼处享受欢悦。
