Rig Veda 10.99.2: Mandala 10, Sukta 99, Mantra 2

Sukta 10.99

Devata: Indra (probable), with allied divine powers (sanīḷa)

स हि द्युता विद्युता वेति साम पृथुं योनिमसुरत्वा ससाद । स सनीळेभिः प्रसहानो अस्य भ्रातुर्न ऋते सप्तथस्य मायाः ॥

sá hí dyutā́ viddhyutā́ veti sā́ma pṛthúṃ yónim asuratvā́ sasāda | sá sanī́ḷebhiḥ prasahā́nó asya bhrā́tur ná ṛté saptáthasya māyā́ḥ ||

Kerana ia bergerak dengan sinar dan kilat; ia datang bersama nyanyian suci. Dengan kuasa asuranya ia telah bersemayam dalam rahim yang luas. Bersama sahabat-sahabat satu-sarang ia mengatasi; bukan tanpa daya-maya saudara yang lahir ketujuh.
