Introduction ( Mandala 1, Sūktā
99) |
|
In the following mantrā
Agni the seer the knower of all is offered
the choicest gift, the very sap of life the distilled juice of
Ānanda the Soma. So at least he would transport us all obstruction
and misfortunes that defect life like a boat across the water. |

Translation |
To the one who knows of all births, we prepare and offer the Soma;
May he burn up completely the wealth and knowledge of our foes;
May Agni lead us to happiness;
Overcoming all grief and sin, may he carry us a in a boat across a
river. |
