Rig Veda 7.4.3: Mandala 7, Sukta 4, Mantra 3
Sukta 7.4
अस्य देवस्य संसद्यनीके यं मर्तासः श्येतं जगृभ्रे । नि यो गृभं पौरुषेयीमुवोच दुरोकमग्निरायवे शुशोच ॥
asyá devásya saṃ-sády anī́ke yáṃ mártāsaḥ śyétam jagṛbhre | ní yó gṛbháṃ paúruṣeyīm uvóca durókam agnír āyáve śuśoca ||
In the presence, in the face of this god, mortals have seized the bright one; he who has spoken down the human grasping that makes the home hard to inhabit—Agni has blazed for the seeker, burning away the cramped dwelling of ignorance.
