He conquers, he conquers, who knows this. That indeed is the conquest of all for one, the total defeat for the other. With this, indeed, the gods conquered everything from the Asuras; the Asuras lost everything. He conquers entirely the hateful rival, and his hateful rival loses everything, who knows this. Now, these \[days\] are continuous. Just as timbers are bound together by a strap, of a chariot or of a cart, so the five-day rite is continuous with stomas. The stomas, indeed, are the breaths; a person is continuous with the breaths. He is extended, who knows this. Two by two, yoked stomas carry his day. Of yoked ones, two by two carry best. With a yoked one, he goes wherever he desires to go. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) ### [2-8.293.p1](https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.jaiminiya.2-8.293.p1) atha yasyaitasya jyotirgaurāyuriti tryahaḥ pañcaviṃśaṃ mahāvrataṃ > Now, for him who has this three-day rite consisting of Jyotis, Gauḥ, and Āyus, the twenty-five-fold Mahāvrata, > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) ### [2-8.293.p2](https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.jaiminiya.2-8.293.p2) sarvastomo'tirātro'nnādyakāmo haitena yajeta > and the all-stoma Atirātra—one desiring food should sacrifice with it. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) ### [2-8.293.p3](https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.jaiminiya.2-8.293.p3) tadāhurna purā saṃvatsarānmahāvratamupetyamiti > Regarding this, they say: 'The Mahāvrata is not to be undertaken before a year.' > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) ### [2-8.293.p4](https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.jaiminiya.2-8.293.p4) tadyajjyotirgaurāyuriti tryaho bhavatyayaṃ vai loko jyotirayaṃ gaurasāvāyuḥ > As to this three-day rite consisting of Jyotis, Gauḥ, and Āyus: this world is Jyotis, this \[intermediate world\] is Gauḥ, yonder \[world\] is Āyus. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) ### [2-8.293.p5](https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.jaiminiya.2-8.293.p5) ime vai lokā ṛtavassaṃvatsaraḥ > These worlds are the seasons, the year. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.jaiminiya~en-mt.2-8.293) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.jaiminiya.2-8.293](https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.jaiminiya.2-8.293) · Pramāṇa
