Překlad
The one hundred years of Brahmā’s life are divided into two parts, the first half and the second half. The first half of the duration of Brahmā’s life is already over, and the second half is now current.
Sto let Brahmova života se dělí na dvě části, první a druhou polovinu. První polovina již uplynula a druhá nyní probíhá.

Význam
The duration of one hundred years in the life of Brahmā has already been discussed in many places in this work, and it is described in Bhagavad-gītā (8.17) also. Fifty years of the life of Brahmā are already over, and fifty years are yet to be completed; then, for Brahmā also, death is inevitable.
O stoleté délce Brahmova života se již hovořilo na mnoha místech tohoto díla a je také popsána v Bhagavad-gītě (8.17). Padesát let života Brahmy již uplynulo a dalších padesát je ještě před ním; pak čeká i Brahmu nevyhnutelná smrt.
