Sukta 21
शा॒न्तो अ॒ग्निः क्र॒व्याच्छा॒न्तः पु॑रुष॒रेष॑णः । अथो॒ यो वि॑श्वदा॒व्य॑१स्तं क्र॒व्याद॑मशीशमम्
śāntó agníḥ kravyā́c chāntáḥ púruṣareṣaṇaḥ | átho yó viśvadāvyàs táṃ kravyā́dam aśīśamam ||
Calmed is Agni as touching the flesh-eater; calmed the man-seeker: yea, that which is all-devouring—this flesh-eater have I made wholly quiet.
شانت ہے اگنی گوشت کھانے والے کے لحاظ سے؛ شانت ہے انسان ڈھونڈنے والا: ہاں، جو سب کھا جانے والا ہے - اس گوشت کھانے والے کو میں نے پوری طرح شانت کر دیا ہے۔
Rishi: Atharvanic tradition (anukramaṇī-dependent)
Devata: Agni (kravyād aspect)
Chandas: Anuṣṭubh
Primary: shanta
