“कति लोकेऽस्मिन् प्रद्योता यैर्लोकः प्रकाश्यते।
भगवन्तं प्रष्टुमागम्य कथं जानीयाम तद्वयमिति॥”
“kati loke asmin pradyotā yair lokaḥ prakāśyate.
bhagavantaṃ praṣṭum āgamya kathaṃ jānīyāma tat vayam iti.”
[A deity:] “How many glowing ones are there in this world, by which the world is illuminated?
Having arrived to ask the Bhagavān, how should we understand this?”

“चत्वारो लोके प्रद्योताः पञ्चमोऽत्र न विद्यते।
दिवा तपत्यादित्यो रात्रावाभाति चन्द्रमाः॥
अथाग्निर्दिवाारात्रं तत्र तत्र प्रकाशते।
सम्बुद्धस्तपतां श्रेष्ठ एषाभानुत्तरेति॥”
“catvāro loke pradyotāḥ pañcamo ’tra na vidyate.
divā tapati ādityo rātrau ābhāti candramāḥ.
atha agnir divārātraṃ tatra tatra prakāśate.
sambuddhas tapatāṃ śreṣṭha eṣā ābhā anuttarā iti.”
[The Bhagavān:] “There are four glowing ones in the world, a fifth is not found here.
By day the sun shines, at night the moon gives light.
Then fire, day and night, shines here and there.
The Perfectly Enlightened One is the best of those that glow; this is the unsurpassed glow.”
