Translation -
The suktas that are better, the near-best and the best should be completely studied.
Footnote -
(11.-13) ‘The better’: concerning sacrifice, or action. ‘The near best’—concerning preparation for salvation by yogic exercises. ‘The best’—concerning the state of bliss. Pt. Khem Karan Das Trivedi has given a different rendering to this as well as to the next hymn. But it seems to far-fetch the meanings of the numbers, given herein and the next hymn, too.
