________________ छन्दोदर्शनम् 479 COMMENTARY_SUMMARY TRANSLATION The invisible Aditi, who is known by name only, is this very earth, the lower one. She is Prthivi, the earth, as she is the abode of all. Likewise, she is this Bhūḥ, the first of the Vyāhstis, the very Yajur mantra and its meaning also. She is great and respectable. This earth which is the last element to be created, is the residence or home of Agni, the splendourous one. Cf. “ This Agni is the lord of earth and the head, the peak of the sky" (Rg. VIII-44-16). "Agni is the master of the house, the house-master of this world" (Ait. Brāh.). This earth is the last of the elements and of the worlds; it is the support of all mortals, who are subject to change, decay and death. This is the home of inert things known as immobile and also of alert things known as mobile, and of all the beings. She is the mother, and also the supporter of all. षष्ठी ऋक् । अदितिः सा मध्यमा भुवोऽन्तरिक्ष मापुस्तद् भूतं पदमिन्द्रस्य गुह्यम् ॥ उभयोर्लोकयोर्विद्युतो विकृति मध्यं सत् सन्ध्यं विश्वस्याधि नाभिः ॥ ६ ॥ पदपाठः – अदितिः । सा । मध्यमा । भुवः । अन्तरिक्षम् । आपः । तत् । भूतम् । पदम् । इन्द्रस्य । गुह्यम् ॥ उभयोः । लोकयोः । विद्युतः । विऽधृतिः । मध्यम् । सत् । सन्ध्यम् । विश्वस्य । अधि । नाभिः ॥ Aditi is the middle of the universe. She is indicated by the middle Vyahrti, Bhuvah. She is the element Apah, waters, which is the secret home of Indra. She is the support of both the worlds, Dyau ( heaven) and Prthvi ( earth) and of lightning as well. The middle one ( which she is ) is the meeting place (of both) and it is the very centre of the universe. अन्वयभाष्यम् । सा अदितिः मध्यमा मध्यमभुवनात्मिका सती अन्तरिक्ष इति अभिधानेन प्रथिता तत् परोक्षं सिद्धं सन्धिरूपत्वात्, “भुवः” इति यजुर्मन्त्रात्मकं द्वितीयं व्याहृतिस कं तदर्थात्मकं च, तथा तदेव आपः अप्स कं रसात्मकं भूतम्, इन्द्रस्य अधिपतेः पदं स्थानं भवति || तच्च गुह्यं गूढं पदं भुवनं इति श्रूयते, " समूळ्हमस्य पांसुरे" (ऋ. मं.
