Meaning -
O Lord, we appoint thee as a king, as thou possessest the vigour of a Vasu Brahmchari, as thou hast got the strength of a Rudra Brahmchari, as thou art full of splendour, full of knowledge like an Aditya Brahmchari, as thou hast the power of killing the proud foes, as thou art full of dignity, and art quick in attacking in the battle-field like a falcon, as thou strengthenest our finances, and advancest the knowledge of science.
-
A Vasu Brahmchari is one who observes the vow of celibacy for twenty-four years, one who remains celebate for 36 years and acquires knowledge is Rudra Brahmchari, and he who continues his studies observing celibacy for 48 years is called an Aditya Brahmchari. The verse means the king selected should not be voluptuous and slave to passions, but one who has duly observed the vow of celibacy and acquired knowledge.
