Sukta 82
Yeh ek shaadi ka mantra hai jo acchi patni lane ke liye bola jata hai. Isme Surya ki baraat ka zikr hai jo Ashwin le kar aaye the. Indra ki taakat ka bhi naam liya gaya hai jo paisa aur khushi deta hai. Yeh sab baton se yeh dikhaya gaya hai ki bahu ghar mein aakar khush rahe. Mantra padne wale ki bhi izzat badhe aur shadi mein koi rukawat na aaye. Is tarah purani kahaniyon ko yaad karke naye rishte ko aashirwad diya jata hai.
