यमं विनिर्ममे पृष्ठादष्टवर्षादनन्तरम् । तद्भार्यां शामलां देवीं तस्मादेव महाप्रभुः ॥ ३,१३.
Eight years later, from his back, he created Yama; and from him, the great Lord created his wife, the goddess Shamala.
यमस्यानन्तरं चन्द्रं त्रिंशद्वर्षादनन्तरम् । असृजद्दक्षिणाच्छोत्राच्छोत्रतत्त्वनियामकम् ॥ ३,१३.
Thirty years after Yama, he created the Moon from his right ear, the regulator of the principle of hearing.
नववर्षानन्तरं तु रोहिणीसमृजत्प्रभुः । वामश्रोत्राच्च गरुडं वामश्रोत्राभिमानिनम् ॥ ३,१३.
Nine years later, the Lord created Rohini; and from his left ear, Garuda, the one identified with the left ear.
चन्द्रस्यानन्तरं सूर्यं विंशद्वर्षादनन्तरम् । सम्यग्विनिर्ममे ब्रह्मा दक्षिणाक्ष्णश्च देवताम् ॥ ३,१३.
Twenty years after the Moon, Brahma properly created the Sun, the deity of the right eye.
वामाक्ष्णो निर्ममे संज्ञां षड्वर्षानन्तरं प्रभुः । सूर्यस्यानन्तरं ब्रह्मा शतवर्षादनन्तरम् ॥ ३,१३.
Six years after, from the left eye, the Lord created Samjna; and one hundred years after the Sun, Brahma did so.
रसनेन्द्रियाच्च वरुणं निर्ममे तस्य मानिनम् । विंशद्वर्षानन्तरं तु तस्मादेवेद्रियात्प्रभुः ॥ ३,१३.
From the organ of taste, he created Varuna, who is identified with it; and twenty years later, from that very sense organ, the Lord created him.
गङ्गां विनिर्ममे ब्रह्मा रसनेन्द्रियदेवताम् । वरुणस्यानन्तरं तु दशवर्षादनन्तरम् ॥ ३,१३.
Brahma created Ganga, the deity of the organ of taste; and ten years after Varuna, he did so.
उत्संगान्निर्ममे ब्रह्मा नारदं भगवत्प्रियम् । नारदस्यानन्तरं तु षष्टिवर्षादनन्तरम् ॥ ३,१३.
From his lap, Brahma created Narada, beloved of the Blessed Lord; and sixty years after Narada, he did so.
अग्निं विनिर्ममे ब्रह्मात्वगिन्द्रियतः प्रभुः । अतो वागभिमानी सं पञ्चवर्षादनन्तरम् ॥ ३,१३.
Brahma created Agni from the organ of touch; and five years later, he created the one identified with speech.
स्वाहां विनिर्ममे ब्रह्मा तामाहुर्मन्त्रदेवताम् । अग्नेरनन्तरं वीन्द्र भृगुं ब्रह्मर्षिसत्तमम् ॥ ३,१३.
Brahma created Svaha, who is said to be the deity of mantras; after Agni, O Indra, he created Bhrigu, the most excellent of Brahmarshis.
दशवर्षानन्तरं तु भ्रुवोर्मध्याद्विनिर्ममे । संवत्सरानन्तरं तु भृगुभार्यां विनिर्ममे ॥ ३,१३.
Ten years later, he created from between his eyebrows; and after a year, he created the wife of Bhrigu.
भृगोरनन्तरं ब्रह्मा शतवर्षादनन्तरम् । कश्यपञ्जनयामास मनसा च स्वयं प्रभुः ॥ ३,१३.
One hundred years after Bhrigu, Brahma, by his own mind, created Kashyapa.
संवत्सरानन्तरं तु अदितिं निर्ममे प्रभुः । कश्यपानन्तरं चात्रिं दशवर्षादनन्तरम् ॥ ३,१३.
A year later, the Lord created Aditi; and ten years after Kashyapa, he created Atri.
अत्रेरनन्तरं ब्रह्मा दशवर्षादनन्तरम् । अजीजनद्भरद्वाजं वसिष्ठ तदनतरम् ॥ ३,१३.
Ten years after Atri, Brahma begot Bharadvaja; and after him, Vasistha.
दशवर्षानन्तरं तु तेषां भार्याः क्रमेण तु । संवत्सरानन्तरेण असृजत्कमलासनः ॥ ३,१३.
Then, after ten years, their wives, in succession, were created by the Lotus-seated One, each after a year.
वसिष्ठस्यानन्तरं तु गौतमं ह्यसृजत्प्रभुः । दशवर्षानन्तरेण जमदग्निं ततोऽसृजत् ॥ ३,१३.
After Vasiṣṭha, the Lord created Gautama; then, after ten years, he created Jamadagni.
दशवर्षानन्तरेण मनुर्वैवस्वतोऽभवत् । मनोरनन्तरं जज्ञे शतवर्षादनन्तरम् ॥ ३,१३.
After ten years, Manu, son of Vivasvat, was born; after Manu, a hundred years later, another was born.
विष्वक्सेनो महाभागो वायुपुत्रो महाबलः । तस्माच्चतुर्दशे वर्षे गणपो ह्यभवद्विभोः ॥ ३,१३.
Viṣvaksena, greatly fortunate and the mighty son of Vāyu, was born; in the fourteenth year from him, Gaṇapa was born from the Lord.
तदनन्तरजो वीन्द्र अष्टवर्षादनन्तरम् । धनपो ह्यभवत्तत्र तद्भार्या वत्सरे परे ॥ ३,१३.
Immediately after him, Vīndra was born, eight years later; there, Dhanapa was born, and his wife in the following year.
विष्वक्सेनानन्तरं तु दशवर्षादनन्तरम् । जयादीन्भ गवद्भक्तान्सृष्टवान् कमलासनः ॥ ३,१३.
After Viṣvaksena, ten years later, the Lotus-seated One created Jaya and other devoted attendants.
जयाद्यानन्तरं ब्रह्मा वल्लाद्याः कर्मदेवताः । शतवर्षानन्तरं तु सृष्टवाञ्छिववाहनम् ॥ ३,१३.
After Jaya and the others, Brahmā created Vallā and other deities of action; after a hundred years, he created the vehicle of Śiva.
कर्मदेवानन्तरं तु त्रिंशद्वर्षादनन्तरम् । पर्जन्यमसृजद्ब्रह्मा मन्त्रयन्त्राभिमानिनम् ॥ ३,१३.
After the deities of action, thirty years later, Brahmā created Parjanya, the lord of mantras and machines.
पर्जन्यानन्तरं ब्रह्मा दशवर्षादनन्तरम् । पुष्करं जनयामास कर्मतत्त्वाभिमानिनम् ॥ ३,१३.
After Parjanya, ten years later, Brahmā produced Puṣkara, the lord of the essence of action.
एवं विनिर्ममे ब्रह्मा मत्प्रसादात्खगेश्वर । एवं ज्ञात्वा मोक्षमेति नान्यथा तु कथञ्चन ॥ ३,१३.
Thus, by my grace, O King of Birds, Brahmā created in this way; knowing thus, one attains liberation, never otherwise, by any means.
श्रीगरुडमहापुराणम् १४ श्रीगरुड उवाच । अवतारान्हरे ब्रूहि तथा लक्ष्म्या दिवौकसाम् । गुणानामन्तर ब्रूहि शिष्यस्य मम सव्रत ॥ ३,१४.
Śrī Garuḍa said: Tell me, O Hari, about your incarnations, and also about Lakṣmī and the gods; explain the distinctions of qualities, for your devoted disciple observing vows.
श्रीकृष्ण उवाच । यो मूलरूपी भगवाननन्तो ब्रह्मादिभिः पुर्णगुणः स्वतन्त्रः । पुरातनः पूर्णतनुर्मदात्मा न तादृशाः संति कदापि वीद्र ॥ ३,१४.
Śrī Kṛṣṇa said: The Blessed Lord, who is the original form, infinite, independent, full of all qualities, ancient, complete in form, and my very self, is never found among others, O wise one.
पादश्च पूर्णः पादतलं च पूर्णं नखाश्च पूर्णाः कटिकण्ठौ च पूर्णौ । ऊरू च पूर्णे उदरं च पूर्णं लब्ध्वापि पूर्णाञ्जगृहे तथाप्युरः ॥ ३,१४.
His foot is complete, the sole of his foot is complete, his nails are complete, his waist and neck are complete; his thighs are complete, his belly is complete, and even having obtained completeness, his chest is likewise complete.
स्कन्धः सुपूर्णाः सकलाश्च बाहवः पूर्णाः केशाः श्मश्रुदन्ताश्च पूर्णाः । लोमानि पूर्णानि तथैव रोमकूपाश्च पूर्णास्तु तथैव शिश्रः ॥ ३,१४.
His shoulders are perfectly complete, all his arms are complete, his hair, beard, and teeth are complete; his body hair is complete, and so are the pores of his hair, and likewise his head.
अण्डश्च पूर्णो ह्यण्डरोमाणि कक्षाश्चक्षुश्च श्रोत्रे सर्व एते च पूर्णाः । किं वर्णये मूलरूपं हरेश्च यावद्वलं पूर्णं समग्रदेहे ॥ ३,१४.
His testicles are complete, the hair on them is complete, his armpits, eyes, and ears—all these are complete; what more can I say of Hari's original form, when every part of his body is wholly complete?
तावद्ब्रलं ह्येकरोमादिकेषु संतित्विमे हि यतः स एव पूर्णः । स एव तु सर्वस्य कर्ता स एव हर्था स तु सारांशभोक्ता ॥ ३,१४.
Just as each single hair and its root is complete, so indeed is he, for he alone is complete; he alone is the creator of all, he alone is the enjoyer, and he alone partakes of the essence.
