Sukta 8.84
Agni
Is mantra mein Agni ki taareef hai jo yagya ka sabse pyaara mehman hai. Wo hamare jaisa dost hai, bahut nazdeeki hai aur aasan pahunch wala hai. Agni apni rath jaisi shakti se yagya ke bhav ko pahunchata hai. Isme ek sawal uthta hai ki mann se kya sahi cheez deni chahiye. Pooja mein sahi shabd kaise bolne chahiye, yeh bhi socha hai. Ant mein Agni ki suraksha se shanti aur shakti milti hai. Yeh ek chhota sa prayer hai ki Agni sahi yagya kare aur hamein raksha de.
Mantras
Mantra 1
प्रेष्ठं वो अतिथिं स्तुषे मित्रमिव प्रियम् । अग्निं रथं न वेद्यम् ॥
Main tumhare liye us mehman ki tareef karta hoon jo sabse pyaara hai. Woh dost ki tarah aziz hai. Yeh Agni hai, jaise rath sawaari ke kaam aata hai, waise yeh bhi jaanna aur istemaal karna hai.
Mantra 2
कविमिव प्रचेतसं यं देवासो अध द्विता । नि मर्त्येष्वादधुः ॥
Woh rishi ki tarah hai jo seedhi baat samajhta hai, jiska dimaag khula hai. Devata ne use baar-baar insaan ke paas bheja hai. Taaki bhagwan ka gyaan insaan mein aa jaye.
Mantra 3
त्वं यविष्ठ दाशुषो नॄँ: पाहि शृणुधी गिरः । रक्षा तोकमुत त्मना ॥
Agni, tu naya hai, tu hamesha taaza rehta hai. Jo log daan karte hain unki hifazat kar. Hamari baat sun. Bacche ki tarah hamare andar jo hai usko bacha. Aur khud se bhi hamari raksha kar.
Mantra 4
कया ते अग्ने अङ्गिर ऊर्जो नपादुपस्तुतिम् । वराय देव मन्यवे ॥
Agni, hum tujhe kaise pukarein? Tu bada hai, tu shakti ka baccha hai. Tujhe kaise pasand aayega hamari prarthana? Tera dil kaise khush hoga? Bata tu kya chahta hai.
Mantra 5
दाशेम कस्य मनसा यज्ञस्य सहसो यहो । कदु वोच इदं नमः ॥

Mantra 6
अधा त्वं हि नस्करो विश्वा अस्मभ्यं सुक्षितीः । वाजद्रविणसो गिरः ॥
Isliye tum hamare liye aise ghar bana doge jahan sab theek rahe. Hamare ghar sukh se bhare honge. Aur hamari baatein aisi ho jayengi jo taakat aur dhan dono laati hain.
Mantra 7
कस्य नूनं परीणसो धियो जिन्वसि दम्पते । गोषाता यस्य ते गिरः ॥
Tum kiske soch ko aage badha rahe ho, ghar ke malik? Jiska mann bhara hua hai aur jiske shabd roshni laate hain.
Mantra 8
तं मर्जयन्त सुक्रतुं पुरोयावानमाजिषु । स्वेषु क्षयेषु वाजिनम् ॥
Log usko chamakate hain aur saaf karte hain. Yeh woh insaan hai jo nek iraada rakhta hai. Ladai mein aage nikalta hai. Apne ilaake mein taakat wala hai.

क्षेति क्षेमेभिः साधुभिर्नकिर्यं घ्नन्ति हन्ति यः । अग्ने सुवीर एधते ॥
