वाजीकरणम्। यथासितः प्रथयते वशाँ अनु वपूंषि कृण्वन्नसुरस्य मायया । एवा ते शेपः सहसायमर्कोऽङ्गेनाङ्गं संसमकं कृणोतु
vājīkaraṇám | yáthā asitáḥ pratháyate váśāṃ ánu vapū́ṃṣi kr̥ṇván ásurasya māyáyā | evā́ te śépaḥ sáhasā́yam arkó ’ṅgé nāṅgáṃ saṃsámakaṃ kr̥ṇotu
Vājīkaraṇa. As the dark one spreads himself toward the yielding female, shaping bodies by the Asura’s wondrous power—so may this Arka, with force, make thy member closely join member unto member.
Rishi: Atharvanic tradition (to be filled from Anukramaṇī).
Devata: Arka (as empowered substance) / generative potency (implicit)
Chandas: To be verified (likely Anuṣṭubh-adjacent with prose-like opening label).
