TEXT 65
- tvacaṁ romabhir oṣadhyo
- nodatiṣṭhat tadā virāṭ
- retasā śiśnam āpas tu
- nodatiṣṭhat tadā virāṭ
tvacamthe skin of the virāṭ-puruṣa — the skin of the virāṭ-puruṣa; romabhiḥwith the hair on the body — with the hair on the body; oṣadhyaḥthe deities presiding over the herbs and plants — the deities presiding over the herbs and plants; nanot — not; udatiṣṭhatdid arise — did arise; tadāthen — then; virāṭthe virāṭ-puruṣa — the virāṭ-puruṣa; retasāwith the faculty of procreation — with the faculty of procreation; śiśnamthe organ of generation — the organ of generation; āpaḥthe water-god — the water-god; tuthen — then; nanot — not; udatiṣṭhatdid arise — did arise; tadāthen — then; virāṭthe virāṭ-puruṣa — the virāṭ-puruṣa.
The predominating deities of the skin, herbs and seasoning plants entered the skin of the virāṭ-puruṣa with the hair of the body, but the Cosmic Being refused to get up even then. The god predominating over water entered His organ of generation with the faculty of procreation, but the virāṭ-puruṣa still would not rise.
