Atharva Veda 18.2.8: Kanda 18, Anuvaka 1, Sukta 2, Mantra 8

Sukta 2

अ॒जो भा॒गस्तप॑स॒स्तं त॑पस्व॒ तं ते॑ शो॒चिस्त॑पतु॒ तं ते॑ अ॒र्चिः । यास्ते॑ शि॒वास्त॒न्वोऽ जातवेद॒स्ताभि॑र्वहैनं सु॒कृता॑मु लो॒कम्

ajó bhāgás tápasas táṃ tapasva táṃ te śocís tapatu táṃ te arcíḥ | yā́s te śivā́s tanvò jātavedas tā́bhir vahainaṃ sukṛ́tām u lokám

Unborn is the share of holy heat—do thou heat that; let thy blaze heat it, let thy flame-tongue [do so]. With those thy kindly forms, O Jātavedas, bear thou this man—yea—unto the world of the well-deserving.

“ผู้ยังไม่เกิด” คือส่วนแบ่งแห่งความร้อนแห่งตบัส (tapas) — ท่านจงทำให้ส่วนนั้นร้อนเถิด ขอให้เปลวสว่างของท่านเผาให้ร้อน ขอให้ลิ้นเพลิงของท่านเผาให้ร้อนด้วย ด้วยรูปอันเป็นมงคลของท่าน โอ ชาตเวทัส (Jātavedas ผู้รู้กำเนิดทั้งปวง/เทพแห่งไฟ) จงพาชายผู้นี้—แท้จริง—ไปสู่โลกของผู้ทำความดีงาม
