Sanatkumāra said:
Saying, "So be it," the lords of the gods, lying in the water
together with the seers, chanted for six million years. // 29
Then, after a great span of time, for those of composed self,
subtle yoga appeared, from which an auspicious fire arose. // 30
Burned by that fire, the sin of brahmin-slaughter then completely abandoned
Nara and Nārāyaṇa and entered into the water. // 31
