Rahular Itihasa / M. N. Dutt · Udyoga Parva Chapter 106 · Verse 3
Sanskrit Original
यस्यामुदयते पूर्वं सर्वलोकप्रभावनः। सविता यत्र संध्यायां साध्यानां वर्तते तपः॥ यस्यां पूर्वं मतिर्याता यया व्याप्तमिदं जगत्। चक्षुषी यत्र धर्मस्य यत्र चैध सुतिष्ठितेः॥ कृतं यतो हुतं हव्यं सर्पते सर्वतोदिशम्। एतद् द्वारं द्विजश्रेष्ठ दिवसस्य तथाध्वनः॥
Where the sun which lights all the worlds first rises and where in the evening the Saddhya practice asceticism, where was first born the intelligence, by which is pervaded this earth and where the two eyes of Dharma are set in order to guide the universe, in which point offers of clarified butter were first made which afterwards flowed in all directions; this, 0 foremost among the twice-born is the gate of day and time.
