Rig Veda 3.60.1: Mandala 3, Sukta 60, Mantra 1

Sukta 3.60

Rishi: Viśvāmitra Gāthina (traditional for much of Maṇḍala 3; specific hymn 3.60 traditionally to the Ṛbhus by Viśvāmitra)
Devata: Ṛbhus (Saudhanvanas), divine artisans of perfection
Chandas: Jagatī (probable for 3.60.1 due to longer cadence)

इहेह वो मनसा बन्धुता नर उशिजो जग्मुरभि तानि वेदसा । याभिर्मायाभिः प्रतिजूतिवर्पसः सौधन्वना यज्ञियं भागमानश ॥

ihéha vo mánasā bandhutā nara uśíjo jagmur abhí tā́ni védasā | yā́bhir māyā́bhiḥ práti-jūti-varpasaḥ saúdhannvanā yajñíyaṃ bhāgám ānaśa ||

Hier, hier, o Helden, sind durch die Verwandtschaft des Geistes die eifrigen Sucher zu jenen Wirkungen mit Erkenntnis gelangt; durch jene māyās, die bildenden Kräfte, durch die — mit gegenantreibender Gestalt der Macht — die Söhne Sudhanvans den opferwürdigen Anteil erlangten.
