He who hath. overtaken Krvi with his might, and silenced Susna with deathbolts, When he supported yonder heaven and spread it out, then first the son of earth was born.

Listen

No recitation by a named reciter exists for this verse yet. Around eleven śākhās are still recited by an unbroken chain of teachers, and recording them is the most time-critical work in this project. If you recite, please get in touch.
