Triṣṭubh
Is mantra mein Agni ki taareef ki gayi hai. Wo ek aisa srot hai jahan se sab achhi cheezein nikalti hain. Dhan, vijay, baarish aur paani ki dhaar sab Agni se aate hain. Jo insaan apne bhajan aur yagya se Agni tak pahunchta hai, use safalata ke darwaze khul jate hain. Usko khana, dhan aur ghar ki samriddhi milti hai. Ant mein, santaan aur vansh ka chalna maanga gaya hai.
