Attribution

Rishi: Atharvanic/Angirasa tradition (ascribed at the hymn level in many Anukramaṇī traditions; specific r̥ṣi attribution may vary by school lists).

Devata: Therapeutic efficacy of the mantra itself (mantra-śakti); implicitly the bodily ‘flow’ (mūtra) as a functional devatā.

Chandas: Anuṣṭubh (probable; standard for many short healing verses in AV 1)
