Varaha Purana

मन्त्रा ऊचुः तथा स्थितं चादिमनन्तरूपममोघसंकल्पमनन्तमीडे

The mantras said: I praise the one thus established, the primeval, with endless forms, whose intentions never fail, the infinite.

ततस्तेनैव कालेन पुनर्गृह्य जलांजलिम् नमो नारायणेत्युक्त्वा इमं मंत्रमुदीरयेत्

Then, at that same time, again taking a handful of water, uttering 'Namo Nārāyaṇa,' one should recite this mantra:

ततस्तेनैव कालेन भूत्वा वै दक्षिणामुखः

Then, at that same time, turning to face south—

यजामहे यज्ञमहो रूपं तु सत्यं ऋतं च कालादिमरूपमाद्यम्

We worship the wondrous sacrifice, the true and the right, the primal form, the origin of time and others.

काष्ठकृत्यस्ततो भूत्वा कृत्वा चेन्द्रियनिग्रहम्

Then, having become intent on the wooden ritual act, and having restrained the senses—

यजामहे सोमपं भवन्तं ते सोमार्कनेत्रं शतपत्रनेत्रम्

We worship you, the drinker of Soma, whose eyes are the moon and the sun, whose eyes are like a hundred-petaled lotus.

त्रिषु सन्ध्यास्वनेनैव विधिना कुर्यान्मम च कर्म तत्

At the three junctions of the day, one should perform this rite for me, according to this very rule.

गुह्यानां परमं गुह्यं योगानां परमो निधिः

This is the highest secret among all secrets, the supreme treasure among all yogas.

एतन्न दद्यान्मूर्खाय पिशुनाय शठाय च 120.

This should not be given to a fool, a slanderer, or a deceitful person.

एतन्मरणकालेऽपि गुह्यं विष्णुप्रभाषितम्

Even at the time of death, this secret, spoken by Viṣṇu, should be kept hidden.

य एतत्पठते नित्यं कल्पोच्छ्रायी दृढव्रतः

Whoever recites this daily, with firm resolve, for the duration of a kalpa,

य एतेन विधानेन त्रिसन्ध्यं कर्म कारयेत्

Whoever performs the rites at the three junctions of the day according to this method,

इति श्रीवराहपुराणे भगवच्छास्त्रे त्रिसन्ध्यामन्त्रोपस्थानकरणं नाम विंशत्यधिकशततमोऽध्यायः

Thus, in the Śrī Varāha Purāṇa, in the divine scripture, the one hundred and twentieth chapter named 'The Procedure for the Threefold Daily Mantra Worship' is concluded.

अथ जन्माभावः येन गर्भं न गच्छेत तच्छृणुष्व वसुन्धरे

Now, the absence of birth: Hear from me, O Earth, that by which one does not enter the womb.

कृत्वापि विपुलं कर्म आत्मानं न प्रशंसति

Even after performing great deeds, he does not praise himself.

कृत्वा तु मम कर्माणि समर्थोऽनुग्रहे रतः

But having performed my deeds, being capable and devoted to compassion,

शीतोष्णवातवर्षादिक्षुत्पिपासासहश्च यः

He who endures cold, heat, wind, rain, hunger, and thirst,

स्वदारनिरतो नित्यं परदारविवर्जकः

Who is always devoted to his own wife and avoids the wives of others,

संविभाज्य विशेषज्ञो नित्यं ब्राह्मणवत्सलः

Who shares with discernment, and is always affectionate towards brāhmaṇas,

कुयोनिं तु न गच्छेत मम लोकं स गच्छति

He does not go to a bad womb; he attains my world.

यो वियोनिं न गच्छेत मम कर्मपरायणः

He who does not go to a lower womb, being devoted to my deeds,

सर्वत्र समतायुक्तः समलोष्ठाश्मकांचनः

Who is endowed with equanimity everywhere, regarding a clod, a stone, and gold as the same,

नित्यं नैव विजानाति परेणापकृतं क्वचित् 121.

He never recognizes any harm done by another, at any time.

व्यलीकाद्विनिवृत्तो यस्तथ्येतिकृतनिश्चयः

He who refrains from wrongdoing, whose resolve is firm and true—

ऋतुकालेऽपि गच्छेद्यः अपत्यार्थे स्वकां स्त्रियम्

Who approaches his own wife even at the proper season, only for the sake of offspring—

ते वियोनिं न गच्छन्ति मम गच्छन्ति सुन्दरि

Such men do not enter the womb again, O beautiful one, but come to Me.

पुरुषाणां प्रसन्नानां यश्च धर्मः सनातनः

And the eternal dharma of those men who are serene—

शुक्रेण चान्यथा दृष्टो गौतमेनापि चान्यथा

Has been seen differently by Shukra, and also differently by Gautama.

शङ्खेन चान्यथा दृष्टो लिखितेनापि चान्यथा

It has been seen differently by Shankha, and also differently by Likhita.
