Translation

Překlad

Out of disgust, Brahmā threw off the body of ignorance, and taking this opportunity, Yakṣas and Rākṣasas sprang for possession of the body, which continued to exist in the form of night. Night is the source of hunger and thirst.

Brahmā znechuceně odhodil tělo tvořené nevědomostí a Yakṣové a Rākṣasové využili příležitosti, aby se zmocnili tohoto těla, které existovalo dále v podobě noci. Noc je zdrojem hladu a žízně.
