Mantra 5
Sukta 8
इदं सवितर्वि जानीहि षड् यमा एक एकजः । तस्मिन् हापित्वमिछन्ते य एषामेक एकजः
idáṃ savitar ví jānīhi ṣáḍ yamā́ éka ekajáḥ | tásmin ha āpitvám ichante yá eṣā́m éka ekajáḥ
This, O Savitar, discern thou clearly: six are the paired ordinances; one is the single-born. In him they seek participation and kinship—he who is, of these, the one single-born.
हे सवितर, इसे स्पष्ट जानो: छह यम (युग्म-नियम/जोड़-व्यवस्थाएँ) हैं; एक ‘एकज’—एकमात्र-जन्मा है। उसी में ये सब सहभाग और बंधुत्व (आपित्व) चाहते हैं—वही जो इन सब में ‘एकज’, एकमात्र-जन्मा है।
Rishi: Speculative Atharvanic seer-tradition
Devata: Savitṛ; also the ‘Ekaja’ (unitary source-principle)
Chandas: Anuṣṭubh-like (compressed, aphoristic)
{"primary_rasa":"shanta","secondary_rasa":"adbhuta","emotional_arc":"From inquiry into paired complexity → repose in the single-born.","listener_experience":"A sense of being ‘re-centered’ and mentally unified.","intensity":3}
