Rig Veda 1.110.5: Mandala 1, Sukta 110, Mantra 5
Sukta 1.110
क्षेत्रमिव वि ममुस्तेजनेनँ एकं पात्रमृभवो जेहमानम् । उपस्तुता उपमं नाधमाना अमर्त्येषु श्रव इच्छमानाः ॥
kṣétram iva ví mamús téjanenam ékaṃ pā́tram ṛ́bhavo jéhamānam | úpa-stutā upa-máṃ nā́dhamānā amártyeṣu śráva icchámānāḥ ||
Wie man ein Feld abmisst, so maßen sie mit der Messschnur jenes eine bebende Gefäß aus. Gepriesen, nach dem höchsten Ebenbild ringend, begehrten sie unvergänglichen Ruhm unter den Unsterblichen.
