Rig Veda 1.145.2: Mandala 1, Sukta 145, Mantra 2
Sukta 1.145
तमित्पृच्छन्ति न सिमो वि पृच्छति स्वेनेव धीरो मनसा यदग्रभीत् । न मृष्यते प्रथमं नापरं वचोऽस्य क्रत्वा सचते अप्रदृपितः ॥
tám ít pṛcchanti ná simó ví pṛcchati svénēva dhī́ro mánasā yád ágrabhīt | ná mṛṣyate prathamáṃ nā́paraṃ váco 'sya kratvā́ sacate ápra-dṛpitaḥ ||
On l’interroge— mais nul ne l’interroge jusqu’au bout ; le ferme le saisit par son propre esprit, dès qu’il l’a saisi. Il ne falsifie ni la première ni la parole suivante ; par sa volonté efficace (krátu) il demeure avec la vérité, sans illusion.
