बृहत्संहिता (आचार्य वराहमिहिर - स्थापत्य, खगोल, मौसम व जल विज्ञान)

Adh. XII. Sl. 11-15] द्वादशोऽध्यायः 151
इन्दोः पयोदविगमोपहितां विभूतिं द्रष्टुं तरङ्गवलया कुमुदं निशासु ।
उन्मीलयत्यलिनिलीनदलं सुपक्ष्म वापी विलोचनमिवासिततारकान्तं।
Sloka 11.—The pond with the bracelets of eddying
waves opens at night the lilies under whose petals rest
the bees as its eyes with dark pupils and beautiful lashes,
as though to witness the Moon's splendour caused by the
disappearance of the clouds.
नानाविचित्रांबुजहंसकोककारण्डवापूर्णतडागहस्ता ।
रत्नैः प्रभूतैः कुसुमैः फलैश्च भूर्यच्छतीवार्घमगस्त्यनाम्ने ॥१२॥
Sloka 12.—The Earth with the hands of pools rep-
lete with various kinds of lotuses, swans, ruddy geese and
ducks greets, as it were, Sage Agasthya with the presents,
viz., abundant gems, flowers and fruits.
सलिलममुरपाज्ञयोज्झितं यद्धनपरिवेष्टितमूर्तिभिर्भुजङ्गैः ।
फणिजनितविषाग्निसम्प्रदुष्टं भवति शिवं तदगस्त्यदर्शनेन ॥१२॥
Sloka 13.—The water which has been poured out at
the command of the rain-god Indra, by the serpents
whose bodies are wrapt up in the clouds and which (water)
is spoiled by fire and poison emitted by them, become
pure at the appearance of Sage Agasthya.
स्मरणादपि पापमपाकरोति किमुत स्तुतिभिर्वरुणाङ्गरुहः ।
मुनिभिः कथितोऽस्य यथार्थविधिः कथयामि तथैव नरेन्द्रहितम् ॥
Sloka 14.—The sage, Varuna's son, removes sin at a
mere thought; how much more when it is coupled with
invocations ! I am now describing for the benefit of the
sovereign the method of propitiating the Sage as pro-
pounded by the sages.
संख्याविधानात्प्रतिदेशमस्य विज्ञाय सन्दर्शनमादिशेज्ज्ञः ।
तच्चोज्जयिन्यामगतस्य कन्यां भागैः खराख्यैः स्फुटभास्करस्य ।१५।
