Sukta 145

Sukta 10.145

Devata

Oṣadhi (the plant-power; healing/compelling force)

这首短颂是实用的“药草颂”(oṣadhi-sūkta):以强力的植物之灵作咒,驱除“sapatnī”(情敌/阻碍之存在),并恢复吸引、和合与正当的结合。说话者依仪式“掘起”并施用此草药,使其成为催迫、赐胜的力量,使所求之人的心意回转奔来——如母牛归向其犊——而令对手被遣送到遥远之处。

Mantras

Mantra 1

इमां खनाम्योषधिं वीरुधं बलवत्तमाम् । यया सपत्नीं बाधते यया संविन्दते पतिम् ॥

我掘起此药草,此最具力的蔓生之灵;凭它,人能驱逐那同夫之敌;凭它,人能再度寻得夫主——存在之真伴侣(内在者)。

Mantra 2

उत्तानपर्णे सुभगे देवजूते सहस्वति । सपत्नीं मे परा धम पतिं मे केवलं कुरु ॥

噢,广叶者,吉祥者;由诸天所驱策者,具大力者!请将我的同室之敌、争夫之女远远吹散;使我的夫主唯独归我,专一而不分。

Mantra 3

उत्तराहमुत्तर उत्तरेदुत्तराभ्यः । अथा सपत्नी या ममाधरा साधराभ्यः ॥

我在上——更在上,凌越诸人之上;于是那与我为敌者,既在我下,便更坠于下之下,沉落于更低的层域。

Mantra 4

नह्यस्या नाम गृभ्णामि नो अस्मिन्रमते जने । परामेव परावतं सपत्नीं गमयामसि ॥

我甚至不取她之名;她在此族人中不得欢悦。我们确然将那同室之敌远送——送往遥远的彼岸。

Mantra 5

अहमस्मि सहमानाथ त्वमसि सासहिः । उभे सहस्वती भूत्वी सपत्नीं मे सहावहै ॥

我乃能忍能胜者;汝乃能克能制者。愿我俩同成强力之女神(sahasvatī),并肩携去我之同室之敌(sapatnī)。

Mantra 6

उप तेऽधां सहमानामभि त्वाधां सहीयसा । मामनु प्र ते मनो वत्सं गौरिव धावतु पथा वारिव धावतु ॥

我置于汝上那征服之力;我以更强之势迫临于汝。愿汝之心随我向前奔走——如母牛趋其犊;愿它循其道而奔,如水循其槽而流。
