Atharva Veda 4.12.3: Kanda 4, Anuvaka 2, Sukta 12, Mantra 3
Sukta 12
सं ते॑ म॒ज्जा म॒ज्ज्ञा भ॑वतु॒ समु॑ ते॒ परु॑षा॒ परुः॑ । सं ते॑ मां॒सस्य॒ विस्र॑स्तं॒ समस्थ्यपि॑ रोहतु
sáṃ te májjā majjñā́ bhavatu sám u te páruṣā páruḥ | sáṃ te mā́ṃsasya vísrastaṃ sám ásthy ápi rohatu
Marrow with marrow let thine be knit together; yea, joint with joint be joined. What of thy flesh is loosened—let it be knit; and let the bone also grow together again.
Que ta moelle se joigne à la moelle ; oui, articulation à articulation qu’elle s’unisse. Ce qui de ta chair s’est relâché — qu’il se ressoude ; et que l’os aussi repousse et se rejoigne de nouveau.
Rishi: Atharvanic healer tradition
Devata: Healing power of regrowth (implicit Rohiṇī), with the body itself as the addressed locus
Chandas: Anuṣṭubh
Primary: shanta
