5.20.5

_*
pratnasya viṣṇo rūpaṃ yat satyasyartasya brahmaṇaḥ /
amṛtasya ca mṛtyoś ca sūryam ātmānam īmahīti //

5. (Thus do they contemplate Him) We resort as our asylum to that Surya who is Atman and an apparent form of Vishnu, the Eternal Person who presides over Satya, Rita, Brahman, Amrita and Mrityu (Satya active righteousness in practice; Rita the abstract righteousness of correct perception; Brahman the Veda which teaches righteousness; Amrita the food resulting from Dharma; Mrityu the evil resulting from the violation of Dharma).

S. Subba Rau 1928, The Srimad Bhagavatam
