Comparative analysis of commentaries and excerpts in English:
[碍腻濒颈 consumes Agni, who emerges from 厂奴谤测补]
厂奴谤测补鈥檚 image produces a reflection of Agni in full lustre. The image and the reflections are also counted as subject matter in Krama system. Agni and 厂奴谤测补 get their power to shine from 笔谤补办腻艣补 aspect of 艢补办迟颈 (艢颈惫补)[1]. 笔补谤腻产颈苍诲耻 蝉惫补谤奴辫腻 艢补办迟颈 gives rise to 厂奴谤测补, who rises and sets with his rays throwing light on the entire creation during day. He produces Agni, to do this duty of illumination in night. 艢补办迟颈 herself swallows these two lustres into her brilliance. Thus through proper inner pursuit for knowledge the 厂腻诲丑补办补 attains the source of illumination.
