- Reader of the sutra: Ma Yoga Taru, also chanting.
- The sutra
- "That yaksha was Brahman," said Uma. "It was through the victory of Brahman, indeed, that you achieved this glory." It was from that -- from the words of Uma -- that Indra understood that the yaksha was Brahman.
- Therefore, verily, these gods -- Agni, Vayu, and Indra -- excel all other gods, for they approached the yaksha nearest; they were the first to know him as Brahman.
- And, therefore, indeed, Indra excels the other gods, for he approached the yaksha nearest; he was the first to know him as Brahman.
- This is the teaching regarding that -- Brahman. It is like a flash of lightning; it is like a wink of the eye. This is with reference to the adhidaivatam -- its aspect as cosmic manifestation.
- Now its description with reference to the adhyatma -- its aspect as manifested in man: mind proceeds to Brahman in all speed, as it were. By his mind also, this Brahman is remembered and imagined as always near.
