Atharva Veda 5.13.6: Kanda 5, Anuvaka 2, Sukta 13, Mantra 6
Sukta 13
अ॒सि॒तस्य॑ तैमा॒तस्य॑ ब॒भ्रोरपो॑दकस्य च । सा॒त्रा॒सा॒हस्या॒हं म॒न्योरव॒ ज्यामि॑व॒ धन्व॑नो॒ वि मु॑ञ्चामि॒ रथाँ॑ इव
asitásya taimātásya babhrór apó̱dakasya ca | sātrāsāhásyāháṁ manyór áva jyā́m iva dhánvano ví muñcāmi rathā́n iva ||
From the Black, from Taimāta, from the Brown, and from the waterless; from Sātrāsāha’s fury—I release (thee) away, as a bowstring from the bow, as chariots are let go.
કાળામાંથી, તૈમાતમાંથી, ભૂરામાંથી, અને જળવિહીનમાંથી; સાત્રાસાહના ક્રોધમાંથી - હું તમને મુક્ત કરું છું, જેમ ધનુષ્યમાંથી ધનુષ્યની ડોરી, જેમ રથોને છોડી દેવામાં આવે છે.
Rishi: Atharvanic (per anukramaṇī).
Devata: Poison/serpent classes as adversaries; the releasing power (mocana) as operative deity.
Chandas: Anuṣṭubh (probable).
Primary: shanta
Secondary: vira
