The filter spread by Brahmanaspati
Pavitra Angirasa sings five jagati verses to Soma Pavamana, addressed as Brahmanaspati, lord of the sacred word. His filter is spread out, and he enters every limb; the unripe, whose body has not known tapas, cannot attain it, only those who are ripened. The filter of the burning one is stretched in heaven's place, its threads shining. The dappled bull holds the worlds; the fathers placed the embryo by his power. The Gandharva guards his place. Clothed in cloud, the king rides the filter as his chariot and wins great fame.
