Atharva Veda 1.3.1: Kanda 1, Anuvaka 1, Sukta 3, Mantra 1
Sukta 3
मूत्रमोचनम्। वि॒द्मा श॒रस्य॑ पि॒तरं॑ प॒र्जन्यं॑ श॒तवृ॑ष्ण्यम् । तेना॑ ते त॒न्वे॒३शं क॑रं पृथि॒व्यां ते॑ नि॒षेच॑नं ब॒हिष्टे॑ अस्तु॒ बालिति॑
mūtrámocanam | vidmá śarásya pitáraṃ párjanyaṃ śatá-vṛṣṇyam | ténā te tanvé íṣaṃ karāṃ pṛthivyā́ṃ te niṣécanaṃ bahíṣ te astu bál iti |
Urine-release. We know Parjanya, the Father of the reed, of hundredfold virile might. With that power for thy body I make refreshment: upon the earth let thine outpouring be—outward for thee—so be it. (bal.)
यह मंत्र पेशाब के लिए है। पर्जन्य को जानते हैं जो बारिश का देवता है। उसकी ताकत से तुम्हारा शरीर ठीक हो। ज़मीन पे तुम्हारा पेशाब बाहर निकले। यह सही है।
