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 ||
He is the hidden ocean; swift, he climbs like the sky when he sets the sacrificial formula within these. By his measured power, with the flame, he laid down the steps and ascended to the luminous heaven—may the lights shine in another sameness.
