मास्ता या अध्यात्ममिति प्राण एव पुरोनुवाक्यापानो याज्या व्यानः शस्या किं ताभिर्जयतीति पृथिवीलोकमेव पुरोनुवाक्याया जयत्यन्तरिक्षलोकं याज्यया द्युलोकँ शस्यया ततो ह होताश्वल उपरराम ॥ १० ॥
In plain words
Enough of that line about the self. Breath itself is the invitatory verse, the downward breath is the offering verse, the diffused breath is the recited verse — so what does a person win through them? Through the invitatory verse, the earth; through the offering verse, the middle realm of the air; through the recited verse, heaven itself. And with that, the priest Aśvala fell silent.
Close to the Sanskrit
Enough of that which concerns the self. Breath alone is the invitatory verse, apāna is the offering verse, vyāna is the recited verse — what does he win by them? The world of earth indeed he wins by the invitatory verse, the atmospheric world by the offering verse, the heavenly world by the recited verse. Then the Hotṛ Aśvala fell silent.
