Vijñāna Bhairava (विज्ञान भैरव)
भ्रान्त्वा भ्रान्त्वा शरीरेण त्वरितम् भुवि पातनात् ।
क्षोभशक्तिविरामेण परा संजायते दशा bhrāntvā bhrāntvā śarīreṇa tvaritam bhuvi pātanāt |
kṣobhaśaktivirāmeṇa parā saṃjāyate daśā
The line
Having whirled and whirled with the body, from a quick fall onto the ground, by the ceasing of the power of disturbance, a supreme state is born.
नेपालीमा
शरीरले घुम्दै घुम्दै छिटो भूमिमा लड्दा, क्षोभशक्तिको विश्रामले परा दशा जन्मिन्छ।
Where it sits
Whirling and a fall are the verse's words. The state is born when the disturbance ceases. The sitting stops at that sentence.
Split: bhrāntvā (भ्रान्त्वा) + bhrāntvā (भ्रान्त्वा) + śarīreṇa (शरीरेण) + tvaritam (त्वरितम्) + bhuvi (भुवि) + pātanāt (पातनात्) + kṣobhaśaktivirāmeṇa (क्षोभशक्तिविरामेण) + parā (परा) + saṃjāyate (संजायते) + daśā (दशा)
