Various Rishis

Mantra 45

Rishi: Traditionally associated with brahmodya lineages; often transmitted under Yājñavalkya’s school authority in the Vājasaneyin tradition

Devata: Interrogative (brahmodya) tending toward Sūrya/Candra/Agni/Pṛthivī as the resolved deities

Chandas: Triṣṭubh-like cadence (brahmodya verses frequently align with triṣṭubh/jagatī patterns; exact metrical scansion requires pada-length verification)

Samhita Patha (Devanagari)

káḥ svíd ekākī cárati ká u svíj jāyate púnaḥ | kíṃ svíd dhím asya bheṣajáṃ kím vā́vapánaṃ mahát ||

Siapakah gerangan yang berjalan seorang diri pada jalannya? dan siapakah pula yang sungguh-sungguh lahir semula, berulang-ulang? Apakah gerangan penawar bagi kesejukan ini? dan apakah pula, sesungguhnya, tanah semaian yang agung?
