Sukta 2.40
दिव्यन्यः सदनं चक्र उच्चा पृथिव्यामन्यो अध्यन्तरिक्षे । तावस्मभ्यं पुरुवारं पुरुक्षुं रायस्पोषं वि ष्यतां नाभिमस्मे ॥
divy ànyaḥ sádanaṃ cakra uccā́ pṛthivyā́m anyó ádhy antárikṣe | tā́v asmábhyaṃ puruvā́raṃ purukṣúṃ rāyáspoṣaṃ ví ṣyatāṃ nā́bhim asmé ||
One has made his seat aloft in heaven; the other upon earth and in the mid-space. May those two spread for us the navel-center of increase—plenitude of riches, abundant in desirable powers and fruitful in many growths—within us.
