The year is a navel of the wheel with seven hundred and twenty spokes, representing nights and days. The circumference of this wheel is without an end and is represented by twelve months. This wheel is full of delusion and does not know deterioration. It affects all creatures belonging to this or the other world. O Ashvinis, set this wheel in motion.
एकां नाभिं सप्तशता अराः श्रिताः प्रधिष्वन्या विंशतिरर्पिता अराः। अनेमि चक्रं परिवर्ततेऽजरं मायाऽश्विनौ समनक्ति चर्षणी॥
