Rig Veda 3.2.3: Mandala 3, Sukta 2, Mantra 3
Sukta 3.2
क्रत्वा दक्षस्य तरुषो विधर्मणि देवासो अग्निं जनयन्त चित्तिभिः । रुरुचानं भानुना ज्योतिषा महामत्यं न वाजं सनिष्यन्नुप ब्रुवे ॥
kratvā́ dákṣasya tárūṣo vídharmaṇi devā́so agníṁ janayanta cítti-bhiḥ | rurucānám bhānúnā jyótiṣā mahā́m atyáṁ ná vā́jaṁ saniṣyán úpa bruve ||
Dengan kehendak sadar (kratu) dan kecakapan daya yang efektif (dakṣa), dalam tatanan hukum kerja yang benar (vi-dharmaṇi), para dewa melahirkan Agni melalui persepsi-persepsi bercahaya (citti). Dia yang memancar dengan sinar dan cahaya—agung, laksana kuda pacu keluasan—aku menyeru-Nya, mencari vāja (kemenangan/tenaga).
