आदित्यानामहं विष्णुर्ज्योतिषां रविरंशुमान् | मरीचिर्मरुतामस्मि नक्षत्राणामहं शशी
ādityānāmahaṃ viṣṇurjyotiṣāṃ raviraṃśumān . marīcirmarutāmasmi nakṣatrāṇāmahaṃ śaśī
在阿底提耶眾神中,我是毘濕奴;在光明體中,我是光芒四射的太陽;在瑪魯特眾神中,我是瑪里奇;在星辰中,我是月亮。
Among the Adityas [viz Dhata, Mitra, aryama, Rudra, Varuna, Surya, Bhaga, Vivasvan, Pusa, Savita, Tvasta and Visnu.-Tr.] I am Visnu; among the luminaries, the radiant sun; among the (forty-nine) Maruts [The seven groups of Maruts are Avaha, Pravaha, Vivaha, Paravaha, Udvaha, Samvaha and parivaha.-Tr.] I am Marici; among the stars I am the moon.
十二位阿底提耶 (Adityas) 包括:陀多 (Dhata)、彌特拉 (Mitra)、阿利亞曼 (Aryama)、樓陀羅 (Rudra)、伐樓那 (Varuna)、蘇利耶 (Surya)、婆伽 (Bhaga)、毘婆斯瓦特 (Vivasvan)、普沙 (Pusa)、薩維塔 (Savita)、特瓦斯塔 (Tvasta) 和毘濕奴 (Visnu)。一年中的十二個月即是阿底提耶。瑪魯特 (Maruts) 是掌管風的神祇,有些說法是七位,有些是四十九位。十二位阿底提耶、火神 (Agni)、閃電等光明體、瑪魯特眾神、星辰等,是主的「普通顯現」(Samanya Vibhutis)。而毘濕奴、太陽、瑪里奇和月亮是主的「特殊顯現」(Visesha Vibhutis),因此它們具有更為輝煌的光彩。你可以將主疊加於日月之上,並將它們視為主的形式來冥想。你可以在本章接下來的詩節中提及的所有形式上,進行同樣的冥想。
Of the twelve Adityas I am the Aditya known as Vishnu? Dhata? Mitra? Aryama? Rudra? Varuna? Bhaga? Surya? Vivasvan? Pusham? Savita? Tvashta and Vishnu are the twelve Adityas. The twelve months of the year are the Adityas.The Maruts are the gods controlling the winds. Some hold that there are seven of them while others say there are fortynine.The twelve Adityas? the luminaries like Agni? lightning? etc.? the Maruts? the stars? etc.? are the Samanya Vibhutis (ordinary manifestations) of the Lord. Vishnu? the sun? Marichi? and the moon are His Visesha Vibhutis (special manifestations) and hence they have greater splendour in them.You can superimpose the Lord on the sun and the moon? and meditate on them as forms of the Lord. You can practise the same kind of meditation on all forms mentioned in the following verses of this chapter.
