(RV 5.81.1)

vi hotrā dadhe vayunāvid-eka it,

Knowing all phenomena he orders, sole, the Energies of the sacrifice,

The Lord of Truth to whom the seeker surrenders himself and opens out in all his being, knows all the movements in the cosmos and the individual, their cause, their course, their goal. With his comprehensive knowledge, this supreme Master of the being regulates and marshals all the energies, the powers that are active and set active in the seeker. And these energies are many—as many as seven corresponding to the seven planes of his being governed by the seven Principles of Existence: Matter, Life, Mind, the Truth-Mind or the Supermind, Bliss, Consciousness-Will, Being. All these energies are dynamised and organized so as to best further and fulfill the transmutation of the human into the Divine.
