It is indeed an overreaching of a single stotra when they make the whole \[day\] twenty-five-fold; thus this stotra would not be overreached.' But Śāṭyāyani said regarding this: 'It is like falling into a pit when it is cut off by even one stotriyā verse, or by two, or by three. For that indeed they may find an expiation or they may not; then what when it is cut off by eleven? What is the expiation for that? Indeed, this day has a single deity: it belongs to Prajāpati alone. He serves Prajāpati through this day. Therefore, this entire day should be made twenty-five-fold.' Its stotriyā verses are three hundred and sixty-two. There, the three hundred are the virāj; then the sixty are the udder; and the two are the two teats, for the milking of this very day. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) ### [2-2.11.p1](https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.jaiminiya.2-2.11.p1) suṣamiddho na ā vahetyāprīrājyaṃ bhavati > With 'Well-kindled, bring \[the gods\] to us,' the āprī-verses become the ājyastotra. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) ### [2-2.11.p2](https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.jaiminiya.2-2.11.p2) yatra ha vai kva cāprīrājyaṃ prajāpatereva tat > Wherever there are āprī-verses, that belongs to Prajāpati alone. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) ### [2-2.11.p3](https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.jaiminiya.2-2.11.p3) prajāpatimeva tenāprīṇanti > Through that they gladden Prajāpati alone. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) ### [2-2.11.p4](https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.jaiminiya.2-2.11.p4) tā naśśaktaṃ pārthivasyeti maitrāvaruṇam > 'Do ye two help us to the earthly \[wealth\]' is the maitrāvaruṇa \[stotra\]. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) ### [2-2.11.p5](https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.jaiminiya.2-2.11.p5) tadvadaha bhavati > It has that \[appropriate\] characteristic. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) ### [2-2.11.p6](https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.jaiminiya.2-2.11.p6) aniruktamu vai prājāpatyam > And that which belongs to Prajāpati is unexpressed. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) ### [2-2.11.p7](https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.jaiminiya.2-2.11.p7) prājāpatye'haṃstattatsalakṣma kriyate > On the day of Prajāpati, that \[stotra\] is made of corresponding characteristic. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) ### [2-2.11.p8](https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.jaiminiya.2-2.11.p8) mahaṃ indro ya ojasetyaindraṃ bhavati > 'Indra, who with his great might' is the indra \[stotra\]. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) ### [2-2.11.p9](https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.jaiminiya.2-2.11.p9) niṣkasya haitanmaṇe rūpam > That is the form of a gold neck-ornament. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) ### [2-2.11.p10](https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.jaiminiya.2-2.11.p10) tasmānniṣkaṃ maṇiṃ srajaṃ purastādbibhrati > Therefore they wear a gold ornament, a jewel, and a garland in front. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.jaiminiya~en-mt.2-2.11) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.jaiminiya.2-2.11](https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.jaiminiya.2-2.11) · Pramāṇa
