Garuda said: "O Galava, I was commanded by God, who is the cause of all knowledge. I ask you, in which direction should I first take you, to see what lies there? East, south, west, or north — where shall I go, O best of the twice-born, O Galava? That quarter to which Surya, illuminator of the universe, first rises; where, the day before, the sadhyas perform their ascetic austerities; where that Mind which pervades the whole universe first arises; where the two eyes of Dharma are found, as well as Dharma himself; where the clarified butter, first poured out in sacrifice, afterward spread everywhere — that quarter, O best of all twice-born men, is the gate of Day and Time.
