सो ऽश्वमेधैरयजत सर्ववेदसुरात्मकम् ।
और्वोपदिष्टयोगेन हरिमात्मानमीश्वरम् ।
तस्योत्सृष्टं पशुं यज्ञे जहाराश्वं पुरन्दरः ॥ ७ ॥
sah-he, Maharaja Sagara; asvamedhaih-by performing asvamedha-yajnas; ayajata-worshiped; sarva-veda-of all Vedic knowledge; sura-and of all learned sages; atmakam-the Supersoul; aurva-upadista-yogena-by the mystic yoga practice advised by Aurva; harim-unto the Supreme Personality of Godhead; atmanam-unto the Supersoul; isvaram-unto the supreme controller; tasya-of him (Sagara Maharaja); utsrstam-which was meant for offering; pasum-the sacrificial animal; yajne-in the sacrifice; jahara-stole; asvam-the horse; purandarah-the King of heaven, Indra.
Following the instructions of the great sage Aurva, Sagara Maharaja performed asvamedha sacrifices and thus satisfied the Supreme Lord, who is the supreme controller, the Supersoul of all learned scholars, and the knower of all Vedic knowledge, the Supreme Personality of Godhead. But Indra, the King of heaven, stole the horse meant to be offered at the sacrifice.
