आ विश्वतः प्रत्यञ्चं जिघर्म्यरक्षसा मनसा तज्जुषेत । मर्यश्रीः स्पृहयद्वर्णो अग्निर्नाभिमृशे तन्वा जर्भुराणः ॥

Sanskrit recitationRig Veda 2.10.5

ā viśvátaḥ prátyañcaṃ jigharmy arakṣásā mánasā tát juṣeta | márya-śrīḥ spṛháyad-varṇo agnír nā́bhimṛ́śe tanvā́ jarbhurā́ṇaḥ ||

De toutes parts j’attire à moi ce qui se tourne vers l’intérieur, par un esprit libre de la force des Rakṣasas ; que Cela consente à être goûté. Agni, jeune en splendeur, désirant la teinte de la lumière, presse son corps contre le centre du nombril, travaillant sans relâche — purifiant et façonnant.
