TRANSLATION

The Rudras, the Adityas, the Vasus, the Sadhyas, the Vishvas, the Ashvins, the Maruts and the manes, and the hosts of Gandharvas, Yakshas, Asuras, and Siddhas—all gaze upon You in amazement.

PURPORT

Ushmapa means manes, because the Shruti declares: ‘Verily the manes receive the hot portions of the offerings’ (Tai.Br., 1.3.10). All these, struck with amazement, behold You.
