Sukta 25
Rishi: Atharvanic tradition (pragmatic equine charm corpus)
Devata: Aśva (the horse as empowered subject); success-force (implicit)
Chandas: Anuṣṭubh-like (with prose-like opening label ‘aśvaḥ’)
Этот одностишный атхарваведийский заговор освящает коня для неутомимого, победоносного бега — силой намерения (manas), направляющего его к «первому месту». Он наделяет животное мощным рывком через преграды (образ речного берега/насыпи) и способностью мгновенно откликаться на зов возницы, так что само движение становится носителем силы-успеха.
