Sanskrit recitationRig Veda 1.33.10

Transliteration

ná ye diváḥ pṛthivyā́ ántam ā́pur ná māyā́bhir dhanadā́ṃ páry abhūvan | yújaṃ vájraṃ vṛṣabháś cakra índro nír jyótiṣā támaso gā́ adukṣat ||

Translation

Não alcançaram o termo do Céu e da Terra, nem puderam, com seus enganos, cercar o doador de plenitude. Indra, o Touro, atrelou a força do trovão, o vajra; pela luz ordenhou as vacas das trevas — raios de conhecimento arrancados da noite do subconsciente.
