शोध संदर्भResearch context · not scriptureComparative Research Noteशोध टिप्पणी
हे पार्थ ! पुरोहितोंमें मुख्य बृहस्पतिको मेरा स्वरूप समझो। प्रकाश, जल और ताप एक ही प्राकृतिक चक्र के रूप हैं; कोई भी अपने आप अलग सृष्टि नहीं है। यह पंक्ति उन रूपों को एक व्यवस्था के अंग की तरह पढ़ती है।
A modern parallel offered for reflection. It is not part of the scripture, and it has not been checked against the original sources it may allude to.
