Rig Veda 9.112.3: Mandala 9, Sukta 112, Mantra 3

Sukta 9.112

Rishi: Traditionally attributed within Soma-Pavamāna corpus; specific ascription for 9.112 varies by recension/Anukramaṇī (often treated as part of Pavamāna collections rather than a single personal rishi).

Devata: Soma Pavamāna (Indu), with refrain ‘for Indra’ (Indra as recipient/empowered by Soma).

Chandas: Not securely derivable from supplied extract alone; likely a common Pavamāna meter (often Jagatī/Triṣṭubh in Book 9), but requires syllable-count verification.

Samhita Patha (Devanagari)

कारुरहं ततो भिषगुपलप्रक्षिणी नना । नानाधियो वसूयवोऽनु गा इव तस्थिमेन्द्रायेन्दो परि स्रव ॥

Transliteration

kārúr aháṃ tató bhiṣág úpala-prakṣiṇī nanā | nā́nā-dhiyo vasūyávo ’nú gā́ iva tasthiméndrāyéndo pári srava ||

Translation

Aku penggubah Sabda; yang lain menjadi tabib; yang lain menggiling pada batu pemeras. Beraneka pemahaman kami, para pencari kelimpahan; kami berdiri menurut (pimpinan Kebenaran) seperti sinar-sinar/lembu-lembu dalam gerak tertibnya. Wahai Indu, mengalirlah mengelilingi dan mengalir maju bagi Indra.
