Sukta 10.191
Saṃvanana (saṃvananaḥ)
Agni
Virāḍ-anuṣṭubh
This brief hymn links the kindling of Agni with the kindling of concord among people: as fire is brought to fullness by gathered fuel, so a community is strengthened by gathered intention. It prays for shared speech, shared mind, and shared rite, presenting yajña as the practical means to form “one consciousness” in the many.
Mantra 1
संसमिद्युवसे वृषन्नग्ने विश्वान्यर्य आ । इळस्पदे समिध्यसे स नो वसून्या भर ॥
अग्नि, तुम्हारी पावर बहुत स्ट्रॉन्ग है। जब लोग तुम्हे जलाते हैं, तुम और पावरफुल हो जाते हो। सब अच्छी चीज़ें यहाँ लाओ। हमें वोह सब दो जो हमारे काम आए।
Mantra 2
सं गच्छध्वं सं वदध्वं सं वो मनांसि जानताम् । देवा भागं यथा पूर्वे संजानाना उपासते ॥
सब साथ में चलो। सब साथ में बात करो। सबका दिमाग एक जगह लगा के सोचो। जैसे पुराने टाइम के देवता एक दूसरे के साथ मिलकर काम करते थे, वैसे ही तुम भी साथ में काम करो।
Mantra 3
समानो मन्त्रः समितिः समानी समानं मनः सह चित्तमेषाम् । समानं मन्त्रमभि मन्त्रये वः समानेन वो हविषा जुहोमि ॥
सबका एक ही मंत्र है, एक ही सभा है। सबका मन एक है और सबकी इच्छा भी एक है। मैं तुम सबको एक ही बात पे ला रहा हूँ। एक ही ऑफरिंग से सबको जोड़ रहा हूँ ताकि सबका एक ही बन जाए।
It teaches concord: people should move together, speak together, and think together, using shared ritual and shared intention to create unity.
Agni is the fire that gathers and transforms offerings; symbolically, he also gathers scattered human energies into one clear purpose and brings prosperity (vasu).
It can be recited before group work, meetings, or ceremonies to set a shared intention—especially verses 10.191.2–3, which explicitly invoke unified speech, mind, and action.
