Rig Veda 5.56.4: Mandala 5, Sukta 56, Mantra 4
Sukta 5.56
नि ये रिणन्त्योजसा वृथा गावो न दुर्धुरः । अश्मानं चित्स्वर्यं पर्वतं गिरिं प्र च्यावयन्ति यामभिः ॥
ní yé riṇánty ójasā vṛ́thā gā́vo ná durdhúraḥ | áśmānaṃ cit svaryáṃ párvataṃ giríṃ prá cyāvayanti yā́mabhiḥ ||
Sie stoßen mit ihrer Kraft nieder — wie Rinder, die sich nicht zurückhalten lassen. Selbst den himmelstrebenden Stein, den Berg, den Hügel, setzen sie durch ihre Züge in Bewegung. So lösen sie auch in uns die festgewordenen Widerstände und bringen den Weg zum Gehen.
