Translation
From Karandhama came a son named Avīkṣit, and from Avīkṣit came a son named Marutta, who became the emperor. The great mystic Saṁvarta, the son of Aṅgirā, engaged Marutta in performing a sacrifice.
Marutta, engaged by the mystic Saṁvarta, performs a great sacrifice. Pairing a strong leader with the right priest is what produces a yajña whose effects reach the gods.
Reflection Questions
  • Who is my 'Saṁvarta' — the spiritual collaborator who unlocks what I cannot perform alone?
  • Whose talents am I underusing because I have not formed the right working alliance?
