Recitation with translationRig Veda 1.56.2

táṃ gūrtáyo némanníṣaḥ párīṇasaḥ samudráṃ ná saṃcáraṇe saníṣyavaḥ | pátiṃ dákṣasya vidáthasya nū sáho giríṃ ná vénā ádhi roha téjasā ||

اس کی طرف اچھی طرح ہدایت یافتہ طالبین اپنی مخصوص خواہشوں کو لے کر چلتے ہیں، جیسے دھارے سمندر کے ملاپ کی طرف جاتے ہیں۔ اب وہ سمجھدار قوت اور پویہ جلسے کے مالک کی طرف چڑھتے ہیں، قوت کی چوٹی پر، جیسے خواہشمند پہاڑ پر چڑھتے ہیں، اس کی روشن توانائی کی چمک سے۔
