with them also they conclude.
Regarding this they say: 'What single stoma, what single meter, what single deity carries the twelve-day rite?'
He should say: 'The trivṛt stoma is the one, the Gāyatrī is the single meter, the deity Speech is the one that carries the twelve-day rite.'
He should say: 'The trivṛt stoma is the one, the Gāyatrī is the single meter, the deity Speech is the one that carries the twelve-day rite.'
For from the trivṛt all stomas were born, from the Gāyatrī all meters; the one deity Speech carries the twelve-day rite.
Regarding this they say: 'What stoma, what meter, what deity is the twelve-day rite?'
He should say: 'The twenty-onefold stoma, the Virāj meter, the deity Āditya is the twelve-day rite.'
For Āditya is the twenty-onefold; Āditya is the Virāj; Āditya is the deity, the twelve-day rite.
Regarding this they say: 'Since the twelve-day rite is sāman, and sāman is all this:
What is the stobha of the sāman? What is the word? What is the syllable?'
He should say: 'Āditya is the stobha of the sāman, the atmosphere is the word, Speech is the syllable.'
Regarding this they say: 'What is the stobha of the stobha? What is the word of the word? What is the syllable of the syllable?'
He should say: 'The eye is the stobha of the stobha, the mind is the word of the word, breath is the syllable of the syllable.'
