1. The earth is a Hiṅkāra. The atmosphere is a Prastāva. The sky is an Udgītha. The regions of the compass are a Pratihāra. The ocean is a Nidhana. These are the verses of the Śakvarī Sāman as woven upon the worlds.
2.17.2
sa ya evam etāḥ śakvaryo lokeṣu protā veda \
lokī bhavati sarvam āyur eti \
jyog jīvati \
mahān prajayā paśubhir bhavati \
mahān kīrtyā \
lokān na nindet \
tad vratam \\217.2\
2. He who knows thus these verses of the Śakvarī Sāman as woven upon the worlds becomes possessor of a world, reaches a full length of life, lives long, becomes great in offspring and in cattle, great in fame. One should not find fault with the worlds. That is his rule.
