Translation -
May the river, wife, and this Audumber-mani all help flow the stream of wealth, plenteous milk and sweet juices of herbs and food-grains from all sides for me.
Footnote -
Three things are essential for the plenteous inflow of the necessities of life for a householder i.e., a river of sweet water nearby, the wife and the Audumber-mani. Both Pt. Khem Karan Das Tfivedi and Pt. Jaidev Vidyalankar have interpreted Audumbermani, as the chief-officer in charge of looking after the nourishment of the people. But I have given a different direction to interpret- these manis to open the field for research into the scientific truths, lying hidden in the Vedic texts. Let some scientists take up the clue.
