Thrilled on seeing Thee (as the child on the Banyan leaf), Markandeya, with hairstanding on end all over his body, rushed towards Thee, wishing to touch Thee, and was immediately sucked in by the inhalation of Thy breath. Inside Thee, he saw all the worlds. Then, on being ejected by the exhalation of Thy breath, and being overjoyed by the touch of Thy side-long glance, he reached out to embrace Thee. However, on Thy sudden disappearance, he found himself back in his hermitage as before.
