Sukta 1.165
अतो वयमन्तमेभिर्युजानाः स्वक्षत्रेभिस्तन्वः शुम्भमानाः । महोभिरेताँ उप युज्महे न्विन्द्र स्वधामनु हि नो बभूथ ॥
ató vayám antamébhiḥ yujānā́ḥ svákṣatrebhis tanvàḥ śúmbhamānāḥ | máhobhir etā́n úpa yujmahe nv índra svadhā́m ánu hí no babhū́tha ||
Darum, mit diesen nächststehenden Mächten verbunden, unseren Leib schmückend durch ihre eigene herrische Kraft, fügen wir uns nun durch ihre Größen zu ihnen. O Indra, folge deiner Svadhā, deinem eigenen Seinsgesetz — denn wahrlich bist du uns geworden.
