EL.Oertel,

Ar. II. is closely similarto (pB.xi. 6. 3 (cf. alsoxiv. 6. 1, 9; B.rh. Up. iii. 9); ITI.1-3 are differentversions_ofthe samelegend: cf. Chand. Up. i. 2 and (:B. xiv. 4. 1 (Brh.Ar. Up. i. 3); to IV. corresponds Chand.tTp. iii. 16; V. is parallelto Chand.Up. iv. 16; VI. gives the samestory as (:hand.Up. iv. 3.

Varunaconsidered: c;Not indeeddoth my son understand anythingwhatever. Come now, I will make him understand." He seized on his breaths. He (B.) fainted. Having fainted, he went to the other world He arrived in yonder world. A man,having cut a man into pieces,then devouredhim. He said: "Ah ! hath this been! What is this?" They said to him: " Ask thy father Varuna,he will explainthis to thee." He came to a second. A man devoureda man [tho was] crying out. He said: "Ah ! hath this been?

" Who are the Rudras?" " The ten breathsin man,"he said; "the Self is the eleventh. When these depart, going out [of the body], then they cause wailing (rud); therefore theyare [calledlRudras." "Who arethe Adityas?" "The twelve monthsof the .year," said; " for they go taking (a-da,) he this whole [universe]; therefore they are [called] A dityas." " Who are the three?" " Just these worlds." " Who are the two?" "Day and night." "Who is Indra, who Prajapati?" "Speech is lndra, mind Prajapati." "Who is the one deity?" " Breath." He said: "Thou hast askedme too muchconcerning deity the aboutwhomone must not ask too much. Before such and such a date thou wilt die. Thy body will not at all reach home." And it happenedthus. He died just thus. His body robbers carriedaway at once(?),thinkingit to be somethingelse. Therefore one should not insult [a Brahman]; for one who has the true knowledgebecomeshis superior. 1II.

The Asuras, running against this [mind] of them, combined it with evil. Therefore with the mind one thinks many a thing of this kind and of that; both [what is] good one thinks with it, and [what is] evil. They sang the ud,tha with speech. That [speech] they treated in just the same way. Therefore with speecll one speaks many a thing of this kind and of that; both [what is] true one speaks with it, and [what is] untrue. They sang the udg?,thawith sight. That [sight] they treated in just the same manner. Therefore with sight one sees many a thing of this kind and of that; both [what is] seemly one sees with it, and [what is] unseemly. They sang the tbdgttha with hearing. That [hearing] they treated in just the same manner. Therefore with hearing one hears many a thing of this kind and of that; both [what is] worth he;+ringone hears with it, and [what is] not worth hearing. They sang the ?dgttha with exhalation. That [exhalation] they treated in just the same manner. Therefore with exhalation one smells many a thing of this kind and of that; both fragrance one smells with it, and bad odor. They sang the vdg?,tha with breath (inhalation). Then the Asuras ran against it, thinking: " We will treat it the same manner." As a clod of earth colliding with a stone would break to pieces, even so the Asuras broke to pieces.* The stone as a target is breath (inhalation). As a clod of earth, colliding with a stone as talget, breaks to pieces, even so he breaks to pieces who speaks ill of one who knows thus.

If he shouldsit talking aloud,while the stotra or the pastra are being uttered,then he would arrallgewith voice the one track of it.

A Brahmansaid this to a Brahmanpriest who, whell the preltarcbnarczkawas beglln, sat talking aloud: "These here then have excluded half of the sacrifice."

and if from [a cause] not understood [when they ask :] " Whence hath this arisen?" they say: "Tell it to the Blahman-priest." That Brahman-priestgoing up toward the east should offer the sacrificial butter with a la(lle in the agnbdAra,with these exclamations: "Bhus, Bhuvas, Svar." For these exclamations expipiate everything. As one would mend gold with salt, silvel with gold, tin with silver, copper with tin, iron with copper, wood with iron, wood and leather with glue, even so one knowing thus cures everything. This they say: " If with the wordls: ' He hath ofEeredfor me, he hath dipped the dippings for me,' they lead the sacrificial gifts to the-Adhvaryu; if with the words: 'He hath SUllg the pastra for me, he hath uttered the vasat for rne,' to the Hotar; if vith the words: ' He hath sung the udgbthafor me,' to the Udgatar; now then- to the Brahman having done what, while he sat in silence, do they lead just as large sacrificial gifts as to the other priests ?" Let him say: " He, indeed, shareth in half of the sacrifice, for he carrieth half of the sacrifice." Indeed thx3y formerly used to lead half of the sacrificial gifts to the Brahman-priest, half to the other priests. Of this there is the following plokss:
" In me, I think, is this whole creation etc., In me the worlds, in me the four quarters In me, I think, is that twinkling thing which stirs, In me the svaters and all the herbs."

" In me that twinkling thing which stirs, in me the waters and all the herbs," for in one knowing thus this whole creation has its support.

This one namely who cleanses here (t]le wind), he [represents] the seizers of all the gods. He, indeed, is ' setting ' by name. ' Setting ' they call here the seizers in the west. In that the sun has gone to setting, it has gone to the seizers. Therefore it is not whole. It goes unto that [god]. The asterisms set. Therefore they are not whole. They go unto that [god]. The fire goes out. Therefore it is not whole. It goes unto that [god]. Day goes; night goes. Therefore they are not whole. The quarters are confounded; they are not known by night. Therefore they are not whole. They go unto that [god]. Parjanya rains and holds up. Therefore he is not whole. He goes unto that [god]. The waters disappear, even so the helbs, even so the forest-trees.

Him he answered: " The self of the gods and of mortals, with golden teeth, violent, not a son. Great thetr call his greatness, in that he, not being eaten, eats him who eats." "One [god] four magnanimous ones." AToiceverily is fire; that is a magnanimous god. When one sleeps, then breath swallows up voice. Mind [is] the moon; that is a magnanimous god. When one s]eeps, then breath swa]lows up mind. Sight [is] the sun; that is a magn.animous god. When one sleeps, then breath swallows up sight. Hearing [is] the quarters; those are magnanimous gods. Whell one sleeps, then breath swallows up hearing. So, when [it is said] "One god four magnanimous ones," this is what that means. "Who (kct,)is he W}10 swallowed up." PraJ lpati is La. He swallowed this 1lp. "A keeper of cleation." He, indeed, is a keeper of creation. " Him, O Isapeya, solne do not know." For some do not know him. "Him, O Abhil)rat;lrin, settled down in many places." For this hreath h.as settlefl down in many places. "The self of the gods and of mortals." For he is the self of the gods an(l of mortals. ' With golden teeth, vio]ellt, not a son." Fol he is not a son; for he, having the form of a son, is not a son. "Great they call his greatness." For they call his greatness great. " In that he, not being eaten, eats him who eats." For he, not heing caten, cats him who eats.
