Verse 27.8
अलाभे चैव रत्नानां वैष्णवं विष्णुसूक्तकम् ।
सूक्तं तु पौरुषं ब्राह्मं सौम्यं चैव तु व्याहृतिः ॥ ८ ॥
alābhe caiva ratnānāṃ vaiṣṇavaṃ viṣṇusūktakam |
sūktaṃ tu pauruṣaṃ brāhmaṃ saumyaṃ caiva tu vyāhṛtiḥ || 8 ||
Note! The following is not a translation of the above verse, but merely an arbitrary extract of the English text.
In the absence of gems, the Vaiṣṇavas chanted the Viṣṇu Sūkta. The Sūktas are the Pauruṣa Vedas and the Soumya Vedas are the Vyāhṛti Vedas.
