Mantra 3
Sukta 108
यां मेधामृभवो विदुर्यां मेधामसुरा विदुः । ऋषयो भद्रां मेधां यां विदुस्तां मय्या वेशयामसि
yā́ṃ medhā́m ṛ́bhavo vidúr yā́ṃ medhā́m ásurā vidúḥ | ṛ́ṣayo bhadrā́ṃ medhā́ṃ yā́ṃ vidús tā́ṃ máy y ā́ veśayāmasi ||
That Medhā which the R̥bhus know, that Medhā which the Asuras know; that auspicious Medhā which the seers know—her, even her, do we cause to enter and settle within me.
ਜਿਹੜੀ ਮੇਧਾ (Medhā) ਨੂੰ ਰਿਭੂ ਜਾਣਦੇ ਹਨ, ਜਿਹੜੀ ਮੇਧਾ ਨੂੰ ਅਸੁਰ ਜਾਣਦੇ ਹਨ; ਜਿਹੜੀ ਭਦ੍ਰ ਮੇਧਾ ਨੂੰ ਰਿਸ਼ੀ ਜਾਣਦੇ ਹਨ—ਉਸੇ ਮੇਧਾ ਨੂੰ ਅਸੀਂ ਮੇਰੇ ਅੰਦਰ ਪ੍ਰਵੇਸ਼ ਕਰਾ ਕੇ ਇੱਥੇ ਟਿਕਾ ਦਿੰਦੇ ਹਾਂ।
