The sacrificial rite concludes towards the north. So much regarding the divinity. Now regarding the self: this person who is here in the eye is indeed the consecrated one. His downward eyelashes are the beard; those which are upward are the hair. The white and black are the form of the black-antelope skin: the white is the form of the white, the black of the black. Now that orb is the waters, it is food, it is the immortal. In that orb is the person made of luster, made of meter. He is breath, he is Indra, he is Prajāpati, he is the consecrated one. When one who knows thus is consecrated, just as that one is consecrated for faculty, primacy, and preeminence, so he becomes consecrated for faculty, primacy, and preeminence. Therefore, when one who knows thus is consecrated, kingdoms are liable to tremble; for he becomes like a hollow in the scorched \[ground\]. For thus he is consecrated for faculty, primacy, and preeminence. Therefore he addresses everyone — the teacher, the father, the Kṣatriya. For thus he is consecrated for faculty, primacy, and preeminence. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) ### [2-3.63.p1](https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.jaiminiya.2-3.63.p1) vicakṣaṇavatīṃ vācaṃ vadati > He speaks speech endowed with the far-seeing. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) ### [2-3.63.p2](https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.jaiminiya.2-3.63.p2) annaṃ vai vicakṣaṇam > Food is indeed the far-seeing. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) ### [2-3.63.p3](https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.jaiminiya.2-3.63.p3) annavatīmeva tadvācaṃ vadati > Thereby he speaks speech endowed with food. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) ### [2-3.63.p4](https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.jaiminiya.2-3.63.p4) vicakṣaṇavatīṃ vācaṃ vadati > He speaks speech endowed with the far-seeing. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) ### [2-3.63.p5](https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.jaiminiya.2-3.63.p5) somo vai vicakṣaṇaḥ > Soma is indeed the far-seeing. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) ### [2-3.63.p6](https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.jaiminiya.2-3.63.p6) annamu somaḥ > And Soma is food. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) ### [2-3.63.p7](https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.jaiminiya.2-3.63.p7) annavatīmeva tadvācaṃ vadati > Thereby he speaks speech endowed with food. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) ### [2-3.63.p8](https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.jaiminiya.2-3.63.p8) vicakṣaṇavatīṃ vācaṃ vadati > He speaks speech endowed with the far-seeing. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) ### [2-3.63.p9](https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.jaiminiya.2-3.63.p9) prāṇo vai vicakṣaṇaḥ > Breath is indeed the far-seeing. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) ### [2-3.63.p10](https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.jaiminiya.2-3.63.p10) tasya vāgeva mithunam > His pair is speech. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) ### [2-3.63.p11](https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.jaiminiya.2-3.63.p11) mithunavatīmeva tadvācaṃ vadati > Thereby he speaks speech endowed with a pair. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.jaiminiya~en-mt.2-3.63) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.jaiminiya.2-3.63](https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.jaiminiya.2-3.63) · Pramāṇa
