FAQs
It states a principle of fitting responsibility: when an obstacle arises due to someone, it is appropriate that the remedy also comes through that same agent; here Agni accepts the entrusted potency.
“Vahni” is a common epithet of Agni, the fire-deity, portrayed here as respectfully receiving (imbibing) a placed or entrusted power (vīrya).
It suggests accountability and congruence: causes and remedies should align—when one becomes the occasion for a problem, one should also participate in its resolution.
