Various Rishis

Mantra 45

Rishi: Traditionally associated with brahmodya lineages; often transmitted under Yājñavalkya’s school authority in the Vājasaneyin tradition

Devata: Interrogative (brahmodya) tending toward Sūrya/Candra/Agni/Pṛthivī as the resolved deities

Chandas: Triṣṭubh-like cadence (brahmodya verses frequently align with triṣṭubh/jagatī patterns; exact metrical scansion requires pada-length verification)
