Rishi

Vasiṣṭha

Devata

Savitṛ

Chandas

Triṣṭubh

この簡潔なトリシュトゥブ(Triṣṭubh)韻律の讃歌で、ヴァシシュタ(Vasiṣṭha)は、神聖なる推進者としてのサヴィトリ(Savitṛ)を呼びかける。サヴィトリは駿馬を駆って中空を行き、贈り物と、人の生にふさわしい正しい導きをもたらす。詩人は、祭祀者たちを相応しい住まいに「落ち着かせ」、その働きを動き出させ、光り輝く知性を広げ、生命を支える養いと広大な活力を授けるよう願う。讃歌は、口誦の賛美を供物として結び、永続する安寧と守護を求めて終わる。

Frequently Asked Questions

Savitṛ is the Vedic “Impeller”—a divine power of awakening light that sets beings and actions in motion and grants right direction, prosperity, and well-being.

It asks Savitṛ to bring boons, place the worshipper in a fitting and stable ‘dwelling,’ impel their works in the right way, expand luminous intelligence, and give sustaining nourishment.

It is especially suitable at dawn or before beginning important work, as a prayer for auspicious initiation, clarity of mind, and protective well-being (svasti).
