Rig Veda 5.48.2: Mandala 5, Sukta 48, Mantra 2
Sukta 5.48
ता अत्नत वयुनं वीरवक्षणं समान्या वृतया विश्वमा रजः । अपो अपाचीरपरा अपेजते प्र पूर्वाभिस्तिरते देवयुर्जनः ॥
tā́ atnata vayúnam vīrávakṣaṇaṃ samānyā́ vṛtáyā víśvam ā́ rájaḥ | apó apā́cīr áparā́ ápējate prá pū́rvābhis tirate devayúr jánaḥ ||
They extend the working knowledge that bears the hero-force; by one common law they widen all the mid-realm. The waters, some flowing forward, some backward, move and surge; and the god-seeking people press on beyond the earlier limits.
