He should say: 'What is on this side of the Viṣuvat is this world; what is beyond the Viṣuvat is that world. This world is as if near; that other is as if empty; for this world is second. In that they undertake the pṛṣṭhyas on the Viśvajit as the seventh afterwards, thus it has equal weight.' Moreover, he who \[performs\] the Viśvajit in this way, it consists entirely of pṛṣṭhas. The cow is Rathantara; the horse is Bṛhat; the goat is Vairūpa; the sheep is Vairāja; rice is Śakvarī verses; barley is Revatī verses. The pṛṣṭhas are this fully assembled chariot. That the Bṛhat is the Agniṣṭoma-sāman on Gāyatrī verses is the axle of this chariot, for the non-breakdown of this chariot. Now those who undertake this with its pṛṣṭha removed, they undertake the Viśvajit as an unyoked chariot, empty; they do not attain anything. Therefore the Viśvajit should be made to consist entirely of pṛṣṭhas. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 2-3.33](https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.jaiminiya.2-3.33) - [Next: 2-3.35](https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.jaiminiya.2-3.35) - [Up: 2-3](https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.jaiminiya.2-3) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.jaiminiya~en-mt.2-3.34) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.jaiminiya.2-3.34](https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.jaiminiya.2-3.34) · Pramāṇa
