In that period, at that time, after the expiry of full 9 months Land 7 2 days, in the first month of the rainy season, in the second fortnight, on the fifth day of the bright half of Śrāvaṇa, [when the planets had attained high positions, with the rise of the new moon, when all the directions were calm, pure and free from darkness, when as per the science of astronomy there were all good omens, when the southern wind was mildly blowing touching the ground, and when the people were happy and at play,] at the confluence of the two halves of the night, when the moon was in conjunction with the asterism Citrā, Ariṣṭanemi was born in a perfectly good health, of Śivă devi who herself was in a perfectly good health.
The account of the birth is to be repeated in toto, substituting the name Samudravijaya at proper places, all down to "this our boy be named Ariṣṭanemi."
