Its splendour was very great and the sound of its wheels were tremendous; it delighted the heart of every creature that looked at it. It was created by Prajapati after severe ascetic mediation. It was as effulgent as the sun and its splendour was so great that none could gaze at it. It was that very chariot riding on which the lord Soma defeated the Danavas.
भानुमन्तं महाघोषं सर्वरत्नमनोरमम्। ससर्ज यं सुतपसा भौमनो भुवनप्रभुः॥ प्रजापतिरनिर्देश्यं यस्य रूपं रवेरिव। यं स्म सोमः समारुह्य दानवानजयत् प्रभुः॥
