Rig Veda 10.131.3: Mandala 10, Sukta 131, Mantra 3
Sukta 10.131
नहि स्थूर्यृतुथा यातमस्ति नोत श्रवो विविदे संगमेषु । गव्यन्त इन्द्रं सख्याय विप्रा अश्वायन्तो वृषणं वाजयन्तः ॥
náhi sthū́ry ṛtuthā́ yātám asti nótá śrávo vivide saṃgaméṣu | gavyánta índraṃ sakhyā́ya víprā aśvāyánto vṛ́ṣaṇaṃ vājáyantaḥ ||
Not in a crude way is your coming according to the seasons; nor is your fame found merely in outer encounters. The inspired seek Indra for comradeship—seeking the rays of knowledge, seeking the steeds of energy, urging the Bull toward plenitude of force.
