Now of the person in that (solar) orb Bhuh is the head, for the head is one, and that syllable is one; Bhuvah the two arms, for the arms are two, and these syllables are two; Svar the foot, for the feet are two, and these syllables are two. Its secret name is Ahar (day), and he who knows this destroys (hanti) evil and leaves (gahati) it.

In plain words: The being in the sun is pictured using three sacred words: Bhuh is his head, Bhuvah his two arms, and Svar his two feet, matching the number of syllables. His secret name is Ahar, meaning 'day.' Whoever knows this destroys evil and leaves it behind.
