Rig Veda 3.29.5: Mandala 3, Sukta 29, Mantra 5
Sukta 3.29
मन्थता नरः कविमद्वयन्तं प्रचेतसममृतं सुप्रतीकम् । यज्ञस्य केतुं प्रथमं पुरस्तादग्निं नरो जनयता सुशेवम् ॥
mánthatā naraḥ kavím ádvayantaṃ prácetasam amṛ́taṃ suprátīkam | yajñásya ketúṃ prathamáṃ purástād agníṃ naro janayatā suśévam ||
O human seekers, churn out and bring to birth Agni—the seer-will that does not waver, wide in conscious power, deathless, with a radiant face; establish him first as the banner of the sacrifice in front, the fire of the journey, the giver of a happy and harmonious good.
