Of letters, I am A; I am the copulative in compound words; I am inexhaustible Time; and I am the all-pervading Preserver.
Translated by Shri Purohit Swami
Among the letters of the alphabet, I am the letter 'A' and the dual among compounds. I am verily the inexhaustible and everlasting time; I am the dispenser of the fruits of actions, having faces in all directions.
