Rig Veda 8.41.8: Mandala 8, Sukta 41, Mantra 8
Sukta 8.41
स समुद्रो अपीच्यस्तुरो द्यामिव रोहति नि यदासु यजुर्दधे । स माया अर्चिना पदास्तृणान्नाकमारुहन्नभन्तामन्यके समे ॥
sa samudro apīcyaḥ turo dyām iva rohati ni yad āsu yajuḥ dadhe | sa māyā arcinā padā astṛṇān nākam ā aruhat nabhantām anyake same ||
Er ist der verborgene Ozean; schnell steigt er empor wie der Himmel, wenn er in diese die Opferformel (yajus) legt. Durch seine abgemessene Macht (māyā), mit der Flamme, streute er die Stufen aus und stieg zum lichtvollen Himmel hinauf,— mögen die Lichter in einer anderen Einheit erglänzen.
