maharṣīṇāṃ bhṛgur ahaṃ girām-asmy-ekam akṣaram |
yajñānāṃ japa-yajño’smi sthāvarāṇāṃ himālāyaḥ || 25 ||

25. Among the great sages, I am Bhrgu; among words, I am the single syllable Om. Among
sacrifices, I am the sacrifice of Japa and among immovable things I am the Himalayas.

Commentary

Of great seers like Marici (see note 3) etc., I am Bhrgu. Words are sounds that convey meaning, and of such words, I am the single syllable AUM. Of all sacrifices, I am the sacrifice of Japa (repetition of sacred formulae) which is the most prominent part of the sacrificial liturgy.
