Rig Veda 5.8.5: Mandala 5, Sukta 8, Mantra 5
Sukta 5.8
त्वमग्ने पुरुरूपो विशेविशे वयो दधासि प्रत्नथा पुरुष्टुत । पुरूण्यन्ना सहसा वि राजसि त्विषिः सा ते तित्विषाणस्य नाधृषे ॥
tvam agne puru-rūpo viśe-viśe vayo dadhāsi pratna-thā puru-stuta | purūṇy annā sahasā vi rājasi tviṣiḥ sā te titviṣāṇasya nādhṛṣe ||
You, O Agni, are of many forms; in each community (and in each part of us) you set the powers of life as of old, O much-praised. By force you shine forth, dispensing many foods—many nourishments of the being; and that blaze of yours, when you are kindled into full intensity, none can withstand.
