अर्थMeaning
Gârgya said: 'The person that is in the mirror, that I adore as Brahman.' Agâtasatru said to him: 'No, no! Do not speak to me on this. I adore him verily as the brilliant.' Whoso adores him thus, he becomes brilliant, his offspring becomes brilliant, and with whomsoever he comes together, he outshines them.

व्याख्याVyakhya
गार्ग्य ने कहा, 'जो यह दर्पण में पुरुष है, उसी की मैं ब्रह्म के रूप में उपासना करता हूँ।' अजातशत्रु ने कहा, 'नहीं, नहीं, इसके विषय में मुझसे बात मत करो। मैं इसकी उपासना रोचिष्णु (दीप्तिमान्) के रूप में करता हूँ।' जो इसकी इस प्रकार उपासना करता है, वह दीप्तिमान् होता है, उसकी सन्तान भी दीप्तिमान् होती है, और जिनके साथ वह मिलता है, उन सबसे बढ़कर चमकता है।
