Sukta 10.145
Oṣadhi (the plant-power; healing/compelling force)
Is mantra mein koi ek jadi-booti ki taakat ko bulaya ja raha hai. Wo plant ki power use karke apna rivla ko bhaga dete hain. Jiska matlab hai jo insaan aapke raaste mein khada ho, use door kar diya jata hai. Phir aapka pyara wapis aapke paas aata hai. Jaise gay apne bachche ke paas daudti hai, waise hi wo insaan aapki taraf aakarshit hota hai. Ye ek tarah ka charm hai jo rishte ko theek karta hai aur pyar wapis lane mein madad karta hai.
Mantra 1
इमां खनाम्योषधिं वीरुधं बलवत्तमाम् । यया सपत्नीं बाधते यया संविन्दते पतिम् ॥
Main yeh jadi-booti nikaal raha hoon. Yeh bahut taakatwar hai. Isse dusri aurat ko haraya ja sakta hai. Isse pati phir se milta hai.
Mantra 2
उत्तानपर्णे सुभगे देवजूते सहस्वति । सपत्नीं मे परा धम पतिं मे केवलं कुरु ॥
Hey paudhe, tum bhagwan ki shakti ho. Tumhara kaam hai rivalko bhaga dena. Mera pati sirf mera ho, kisi aur ka nahi.
Mantra 3
उत्तराहमुत्तर उत्तरेदुत्तराभ्यः । अथा सपत्नी या ममाधरा साधराभ्यः ॥
Main sabse upar uthta hoon. Baaki sab log neeche rehte hain. Jo rival hai, woh aur bhi neeche chala jaata hai.
Mantra 4
नह्यस्या नाम गृभ्णामि नो अस्मिन्रमते जने । परामेव परावतं सपत्नीं गमयामसि ॥
Main uska naam bhi nahi leta. Woh logon mein rehkar bhi khush nahi hai. Hum use bahut door bhej dete hain.
Mantra 5
अहमस्मि सहमानाथ त्वमसि सासहिः । उभे सहस्वती भूत्वी सपत्नीं मे सहावहै ॥
Main taakat se jeeta hoon aur tum bhi jeete ho. Dono milke bahut strong ho jaate hain. Phir saath mein rival ko hara dete hain.
Mantra 6
उप तेऽधां सहमानामभि त्वाधां सहीयसा । मामनु प्र ते मनो वत्सं गौरिव धावतु पथा वारिव धावतु ॥
Main tum par itni taakat daal deta hoon ki tum haar maan jao. Aur isse bhi badi taakat se main tumpe dabav dalta hoon. Tumhara mann mere peeche bhaage jaise gai apne bachde ke peeche bhaagti hai. Jaise paani apna rasta banake bhaagta hai, waise hi tumhara mann mere taraf aaye.
It is a short Vedic charm that uses a powerful herb (oṣadhi) to remove a rival or obstructing influence and to bring back harmony and attraction in a relationship or household.
The main invoked power is Oṣadhi, the living force of medicinal/efficacious plants. The hymn treats the herb itself as a divine instrument through which mantra works.
It is a poetic way to say that attention and affection should naturally return—swiftly and directly—just as a cow runs to her calf and water runs in its channel.
