He who presides over all sacred days. (or, He who overwhelms Indra himself with His own excellent attributes), He who showers all objects of desire upon His worshippers. He or who walks over all the universe. He who offers the excellent flight of steps formed by Virtue. He who has Virtue in His abdomen. (or, He who protects Indra even as a mother protects the child in her womb). He who aggrandises (His worshippers). He who spreads Himself out for becoming the vast universe. He who is aloof from all things. He who is the receptacle of the ocean of Shrutis. (256-264)
