18. מבלי לחשוב כלל, אימצה דעתה הנבערת את צורת המחט. הרי אצל מי שתבונתו מקולקלת, לא עולה הרהור על סיבה ותוצאה.

19. An object (padārthaḥ), through the power of one's own thoughts (bhāvanayā), changes its nature, due to the intense efficacy of self-interested action (svārthakriyograsāmarthyāt). This is like a mirror (darpaṇaḥ) that becomes capable of reflecting desired images (abhimatāṃśāḍhyaḥ) as if by one's very breath (niḥśvāsena).
19. מכוחה העז של הכוונה לפעול למען תכליתה, הופך אובייקט באמצעות המחשבה למשהו אחר לגמרי, המלא בתכונות המבוקשות – ממש כמו שמראה משתנה בעקבות הבל פה.

nijayecchayā dehaḥ api tṛṇavat tyaktaḥ

rākṣasyā grāsagandhena dehanāśaḥ api na īkṣitaḥ
22. Indeed, when there is an intense focus (gandha) on a single object, other perceptions (saṃvid) disappear. Due to the female demon's (rākṣasī) intense preoccupation with consuming (grāsagandha), even the destruction of her body was not noticed.
22. כשנמשכים בעוצמה אחר דבר אחד בלבד, כל התפיסות الأחרות נעלמות. מתוך התשוקה לטרוף את טרפה, ה-רָאקְשָׁסִי (המפלצת) אפילו לא הבחינה בהרס גופה שלה.

sūcībhūtā videhā api rākṣasī parituṣṭā eva

83. She (the needle) sinks into mud, ascends to the sky, and roams the cardinal directions carried by the winds of space. She rests as if on dusty ground, in forests, on planks, in homes, in inner chambers, in one's hand, on a lotus-like ear, or on a soft piece of chosen wool. She fits into the crevices of wood and clay, and she (also) resides in the heart, solely by her inherent power of matter and self (dravya-ātman-śakti).
83. היא שוקעת ברפש, עולה לשמים, משוטטת עם רוחות הרקיע באופק, מונחת בעפר, על האדמה, ביער, על משי, בבתים, בהרמון, בידיים, בלוטוס האוזן, על פיסת צמר רכה כרצונה, נכנסת לסדקי עץ ואדמה וגם לתוך לבבות – כל זאת בכוח חומר ישותה בלבד.

84. Śrī Vālmīki said: After the sage had finished speaking, the day advanced towards the evening ritual, and the sun set. The assembly, having offered salutations, then went to bathe. In the dwindling darkness, they returned along with the sun's rays.
84. וָאלְמִיקִי אמר: כאשר דיבר ה-מוּנִי (הפרוש הקדוש) כך, חלף היום והשמש שקעה לטקסי הערב. הנוכחים באסיפה קדו קידה והלכו להתרחץ, וחזרו עם זריחת קרני השמש בתום הלילה.
