स्वनं स्यन्दनार्थे चु धातुरेषु विभाव्यते / स्वनात्तेजसो ऽपां च तेनासौ सविता मतः
svanaṃ syandanārthe cu dhātureṣu vibhāvyate / svanāttejaso 'pāṃ ca tenāsau savitā mataḥ
Among the verbal roots, ‘svan’ is also understood in the sense of ‘syandana’, “to cause to flow”; because he sets radiance and the waters in motion, he is therefore regarded as Savitā.
