Recitation with translationRig Veda 6.7.6

vaiśvānarasya ví-mitāni cákṣasā sānū́ni divó amṛ́tasya ketúnā | tásyed u víśvā bhúvanā́dhi mū́rdhani vayā́ iva ruruhuḥ saptá vi-srúhaḥ ||

Dengan cakṣasā (penglihatan sang ṛṣi), rabung-rabung tinggi Langit diukur bagi Vaiśvānara, oleh ketu (panji-cahaya) Sang Abadi. Di atas kepalanya sendiri seluruh alam ditegakkan; laksana daya-daya bersayap ia menjulang—tujuh arus yang mengalir berpencar, gerak berbilang-sinar dari satu Api.
