स तस्मिन्नेवाकाशे स्त्रियमाजगाम बहुशोभमानामुमां हैमवतीं तां होवाच किमेतद्यक्षमिति
sa tasminnevākāśe striyamājagāma bahuśobhamānāmumāṃ haimavatīṃ tāṃ hovāca kimetadyakṣamiti
Where Agni and Vāyu were confronted by the yakṣa directly, Indra meets Umā Haimavatī — wisdom in the form of a woman. The teaching arrives not by combat but by inquiry from a humbler position. Indra asks; she will teach.

उसी आकाश में उसे एक अत्यन्त शोभायमान स्त्री मिली — उमा हैमवती। प्रकाश, जल और ताप एक ही प्राकृतिक चक्र के रूप हैं। यह पंक्ति उन रूपों को एक व्यवस्था के अंग की तरह पढ़ती है।
