Sukta 129
Rishi: Atharvanic tradition (not determinable from excerpt alone)
Devata: Bhaga (fortune/portion), with Indra as co-agent
Chandas: Anuṣṭubh (probable)
这首简短的增益（Paustika）赞歌祈请“分福之神”婆伽（Bhaga）——即个人应得的“份额/福分”——并借助因陀罗丰沛的力量，以确立兴盛，使诵持者成为“有福之人”（bhagin）。它从草木界引出繁荣之力（诸树，尤指śāṃśapa），同时驱逐会阻碍获利的arāti——恶意者、竞争者与障碍者。其咒力在于使行者与婆伽那反复出现、甚至隐而不显的份额相契合，并以辟邪式的驱逐将之封固。

Frequently Asked Questions
Bhaga is the Vedic power of fortune understood as your rightful allotted share—what properly comes to you. Here Bhaga is invoked to make the reciter ‘fortunate’ (bhagin) and to stabilize gains.
The hymn treats prosperity as something lodged within vegetation—stored, hidden, and recoverable. Śāṃśapa functions as a tangible implement/amulet that helps ‘tap’ that vegetative reservoir of Bhaga.
It is an apotropaic dismissal of arātis—people or forces that obstruct your success (envy, rivalry, hostile claimants). The mantra is meant to protect acquisitions and prevent interference with one’s portion.
