When the great sages saw the Lord as the brahmacārī-dwarf Vāmana, they were certainly very pleased. Thus they placed before them Kaśyapa Muni, the Prajāpati, and performed all the ritualistic ceremonies, such as the birthday ceremony.

Al ver al Señor en la forma de Vāmana, el brahmacārī enano, los grandes sabios se sintieron enormemente complacidos.Entonces hicieron venir ante ellos a Kaśyapa Muni, el prajāpati, y celebraron todas las ceremonias rituales, como la ceremonia de nacimiento.

Significado

According to Vedic civilization, when a child is born in the family of a brāhmaṇa, the birthday ceremony, known as jāta-karma, is first performed, and then other ceremonies are also gradually performed. But when this vāmana-rūpa appeared in the form of a vaṭu, or brahmacārī, His sacred thread ceremony was also performed immediately.

En la civilización védica, la primera ceremonia que se celebra cuando nace un niño en una familia debrāhmaṇas es la ceremonia jāta-karma, en conmemoración del nacimiento; después, se van sucediendo otras ceremonias. Sin embargo, en el advenimiento de vāmana-rūpa en la forma de un vaṭu, o brahmacārī, también se celebró inmediatamente la ceremonia del cordón sagrado.
