Sukta 37
Sukta 7.37
Vasiṣṭha (traditional for Maṇḍala 7)
Ṛbhus / Vājas / Ṛbhukṣaṇas (as addressed); Soma context prominent
Triṣṭubh (probable; needs verification)
Vasishtha is bol raha hai ki Rbhu log aao Soma ke jagah par. Wo log apni saaf gaadi mein aate hain aur teen tarah ki Soma pi kar khush hote hain. Hum unse badi taqat aur shakti maang rahe hain. Iske baad Indra aur Savitar bhi madad ke liye bulaye ja rahe hain. Hum jeet, suraksha aur dhan ki asha rakhte hain. Yeh poora gaana Soma ki puja ke liye hai aur achha jeevan ke liye prayash hai.
Mantras
Mantra 1
आ वो वाहिष्ठो वहतु स्तवध्यै रथो वाजा ऋभुक्षणो अमृक्तः । अभि त्रिपृष्ठैः सवनेषु सोमैर्मदे सुशिप्रा महभिः पृणध्वम् ॥
Sabse accha rath tumhein yahan laye, stuti ke liye. Vaj aur Ribhukshan, tum koi galti nahi karte. Som ras ki teen pujiya ke saath, tum khush ho ke bade shakti se bhar jao.
Mantra 2
यूयं ह रत्नं मघवत्सु धत्थ स्वर्दृश ऋभुक्षणो अमृक्तम् । सं यज्ञेषु स्वधावन्तः पिबध्वं वि नो राधांसि मतिभिर्दयध्वम् ॥
Tum log daan karne wale mein khazana rakhte ho. Ribhukshan, tum swarg dekhne wale ho, bina galti ke. Yagya mein mil ke, apni marzi se piyo. Apni samajh se humein dhan baanto.
Mantra 3
उवोचिथ हि मघवन्देष्णं महो अर्भस्य वसुनो विभागे । उभा ते पूर्णा वसुना गभस्ती न सूनृता नि यमते वसव्या ॥
Maghavan, tumne bada aur chota dhan baantne ka bataya hai. Tumhare dono haath khazane se bhare hain. Tumhari seedhi baat ruki nahi hai, dhan ki shakti bhi nahi.
Mantra 4
त्वमिन्द्र स्वयशा ऋभुक्षा वाजो न साधुरस्तमेष्यृक्वा । वयं नु ते दाश्वांसः स्याम ब्रह्म कृण्वन्तो हरिवो वसिष्ठाः ॥
Indra, tum apni shakti se chamakte ho, Ribhu ka kaam jaante ho. Tum ghar jao, jeet ke tarah. Hum Vasishtha tumhein dene wale banein, bhajan gaate hue.
Mantra 5
सनितासि प्रवतो दाशुषे चिद्याभिर्विवेषो हर्यश्व धीभिः । ववन्मा नु ते युज्याभिरूती कदा न इन्द्र राय आ दशस्येः ॥
Indra, tum aage badhne waali taakaat jeete ho. Jo log tumhe denge, unke liye bhi tum jeete ho. Tumhare bhure rang ke ghode hain. Tum soch ke chalte ho. Hum tumhari madad maang rahe hain. Indra, kab tum humein dhan aur khushali doge?
Mantra 6
वासयसीव वेधसस्त्वं नः कदा न इन्द्र वचसो बुबोधः । अस्तं तात्या धिया रयिं सुवीरं पृक्षो नो अर्वा न्युहीत वाजी ॥
Indra, jaise tum rishiyon ko jaagaate ho, waise hamare shabd bhi jaaga do. Tum soch ke raasta dikhate ho. Dhan aur shakti laao. Tum mazboot ghode jaise ho. Humaare paas aa jao aur yeh sab laa ke do.
Mantra 7
अभि यं देवी निॠतिश्चिदीशे नक्षन्त इन्द्रं शरदः सुपृक्षः । उप त्रिबन्धुर्जरदष्टिमेत्यस्ववेशं यं कृणवन्त मर्ताः ॥
Indra itna bada hai ki naash karne waali devi bhi usko chahti hai. Phir bhi achhe mausam use dhoondhte rehte hain. Log kabhi-kabhi phans jaate hain, teen bandhan mein. Indra aata hai aur usko tod ke naya raasta bana deta hai.
Mantra 8
आ नो राधांसि सवित स्तवध्या आ रायो यन्तु पर्वतस्य रातौ । सदा नो दिव्यः पायुः सिषक्तु यूयं पात स्वस्तिभिः सदा नः ॥
Savitar dev, tumhari madad aati hai aur log tumhari tarif karte hain. Pahad se dhan aata hai. Bhagwan hamesha humaare saath rahe. Tum hamesha humein buraai se bachaao.
Frequently Asked Questions
The Ṛbhus are a group of three divine craftsmen. In RV 7.37 they are invited to the Soma rite as skilled, effective powers who can renew, perfect, and bring abundance.
Because the hymn is shaped as an invitation to the Soma pressings (savanas). The poet calls the deities to drink the Soma and, through that shared ritual joy, to grant strength, wealth, and protection.
Vedic hymns often weave related divine functions together. Here Indra represents winning force and riches, while Savitar provides beneficent impulsion and ongoing protection, rounding off the Ṛbhu-invocation with a final blessing of svasti (well-being).
