Translation -
May the friendly Lord be gracious to us; may the venerable Lord, and the controller Lord be gracious to us. May the resplendent Lord, the Lord supreme be gracious to us, and may the omnipresent Lord of wide strides be gracious to us. (1)
Notes -
According to Dayananda, Mitra, Varuna, Aryaman, Indra, Brhaspati and Viṣṇu are the different names of one and the same deity emphasizing its different aspects. But in legend, they are imagined to be different gods. Mitra is worshipped as a deity in Syria. Indra is imagined to be the king of gods and Brhaspati the preceptor of gods. Vișnu is famous for his three strides, with which be covered all the three worlds. Still, Mahidhara explains Mitra, as one who, मेद्यति स्निह्यति भक्तेषु, is affectionate towards devotees; वृणोत्यङ्गीकरोति भक्तं इति वरुणः, one who adopts devotee is Varunaइ;यर्ति गच्छति भक्तं यः स अर्यमा, one who goes towards devotees, is Aryaman; not much different from Dayānanda.
