हिन्दी
This earth is known by the syllable ‘hāu’; air by the syllable ‘hāi’; the moon by the syllable ‘atha’; the individual self by the syllable ‘iha’; fire by the syllable ‘ī’.
Āditya, the sun, is represented by the stobha ū; nihava, the welcoming hymn, by the stobha e; the Viśvadeva gods by the stobha auhoyi; Prajāpati by the stobha hiṃ; prāṇa by the stobha svara; food by the stobha yā; and Virāṭ by the stobha vāk.
The thirteenth stobha 'huṃ' is not clearly defined. Various scholars have defined it in various ways. (Thus, it is up to people to meditate on it as they like).
To a person who knows the 'Sāma' with its stobhas, as mentioned earlier, the organ of speech gives of its best. Such a person gets plenty of food to eat and can also eat much food.
