Sukta 36
स विश्वा॑ प्रति॑ चाक्लृप ऋ॒तूंरुत् सृ॑जते व॒शी। य॒ज्ञस्य॒ वय॑ उत्ति॒रन्
sá víśvā práti cāklṛpa ṛtū́m̐r út sṛ́jate vaśī́ | yajñásya váya uttiráṇ
He, the controller, hath set in order all things in due response; in accord with Ṛta he sendeth forth the seasons, having borne the Sacrifice’s vital strength across (to its fulfilment).
Er, der Lenker, hat alles in rechter Entsprechung geordnet; gemäß Ṛta sendet er die Jahreszeiten aus, nachdem er die Lebenskraft des Opfers hinübergetragen hat — zu seiner Vollendung.
Rishi: Atharvanic tradition (exact r̥ṣi attribution varies by anukramaṇī lists)
Devata: Agni / the ordering power aligned with Ṛta (contextually linked with Kāma in 6.36.3)
Chandas: Anuṣṭubh (probable; pāda-structure suggests anuṣṭubh cadence)
Primary: shanta
