O scion of Bharata, after Svāyambhuva Manu had thus entered the forest with his wife, he stood on one leg on the bank of the river Sunandā, and in this way, with only one leg touching the earth, he performed great austerities for one hundred years. While performing these austerities, he spoke as follows.
¡Oh, vástago de Bharata!, Svāyambhuva Manu, después de retirarse al bosque con su esposa, permaneció de pie sobre una sola pierna a orillas del río Sunandā; en esa postura, con una sola pierna apoyada en el suelo, se sometió a grandes austeridades durante cien años. Mientras realizaba esas austeridades, habló de la siguiente manera.
