Rishi: Atharvanic tradition (hymn-seer not securely individualized in common indices for this verse alone)
Devata: Saṃjñāna (Concord) with Bhaga as supporting deity
Chandas: Anuṣṭubh (likely; AV 6 often uses anuṣṭubh in such charms)
AV 6.74は、争う集団が互いを再び認め合い、協働の秩序へ戻るよう、身体・心・胸中・共通の行持を儀礼的に「編み合わせる」簡潔な和合の呪である。共有理解の力であるサṃジュニャーナ(Saṃjñāna)を呼び、支えとしてバガ(正当な取り分/幸運の分け前)とアンナ(食)に依拠し、聖なる言葉と共同体の結束によって不快と罪過を和らげ、満場一致を回復させる。
Mantra 1
सांमनस्यम्। सं वः॑ पृच्यन्तां त॒न्वः॑१ सं मनां॑सि॒ समु॑ व्र॒ता। सं वोऽयं ब्रह्म॑ण॒स्पति॒र्भगः॑ सं वो॑ अजीगमत्
心の和合。汝らの身は結ばれ、心は結び合わされ、誓戒(ヴラタ)は一つに集まれ。ブラフマナスパティ(Brahmaṇaspati)—バガ(Bhaga)—は、共に汝らのもとへ来たり、共に汝らを結び集めた。
Mantra 2
सं॒ज्ञप॑नं वो॒ मन॒सोऽथो॑ सं॒ज्ञप॑नं हृ॒दः । अथो॒ भग॑स्य॒ यच्छ्रा॒न्तं तेन॒ संज्ञ॑पयामि वः
汝らの心のために和合の鎮めを、また汝らの胸(こころ)のために和合の鎮めを。さらに、バガ(Bhaga)の疲れ和らいだその分によって――それをもって汝らを互いに認め合うようにさせる。
Mantra 3
यथा॑दि॒त्या वसु॑भिः संबभू॒वुर्म॒रुद्भि॑रु॒ग्रा अहृ॑णीयमानाः । एवा त्रि॑णाम॒न्नहृ॑णीयमान इ॒मान् जना॒न्त्संम॑नसस्कृधी॒ह
アーディティヤ(Ādityas)がヴァス(Vasus)と結び、また強きマルト(Maruts)と結びつき、しかも互いに咎め立てしなかったように。かくのごとく、食物よ、咎めを生じさせず、ここにいるこの人々を同じ心に整えよ。
It is used to reconcile people after conflict and to create unanimity in a household or community by aligning mind, heart, and shared commitments.
Bhaga represents the ‘right share’ and fortune that prevents resentment, while Anna (shared food) is the practical medium that seals harmony through a common meal and non-offending nourishment.
Yes. The hymn is primarily speech-powered; a simple shared food portion (or even the intention of equitable sharing) is enough to enact its concord-making logic.
