Rig Ved - First Mandal, First Sukt, 1-9 Mantr


Max Muller and Ralph T.H.Griffith
I Laud Agni, the chosen Priest, God, minister of sacrifice, The hotar, lavishest of wealth.1. Worthy is Agni to be praised by living as by ancient seers. He shall bring hitherward the Gods.2 Through Agni man obtaineth wealth, yea, plenty waxing day by day. Most rich in heroes, glorious.3 Agni, the perfect sacrifice which thou encompassest about. Verily goeth to the Gods.4 May Agni, sapient-minded Priest, truthful, most gloriously great. The God, come hither with the Gods.5 Whatever blessing, Agni, thou wilt grant unto thy worshiper. That, Aṅgiras, is indeed thy truth.6 To thee, dispeller of the night, O Agni, day by day with prayer. Bringing thee reverence, we come.7 Ruler of sacrifices, guard of Law eternal, radiant One. Increasing in thine own abode.8 Be to us easy of approach, even as a father to his son. Agni, be with us for our weal.9

Aruneshvwar Gupta
Pray Agni the receiver, holder and distributor of energy, which leads to victory of devta and wealth to the performer of yagye.The ancient seekers prayed Agni, so can the present. It holds the divine benefits in itself.2 Agni helps obtaining, possessing and enjoying fame and power, which as a rule continues to increase day by day.3 That which is given in oblation to Agni for divine during yagye, certainly reaches the devta.4 The sound which is made (mantr) according to correct pronunciation (phonetic rules) before Agni goes to the supreme energy of the devta.5 That results which you Agni create and delivers on hearing, is received in truth by the doer6. I bow to you Agni, which day by day removes toxins (negativities) and eliminates errors.7 It (Agni) wears the secret, which governs the immortality and Self existence.8 Like a father hugs his son, so you (Agni) envelop the Self.9

Aruneswar jee, Overwhelmed with your biopic & your perception perfect on Rig Veda, that you authered in simplest form of understanding that emerges from Agni_then Yegye_then mantr_&_finaly Devta..the ultimate energy supreme. ...a brilliant manner of expression. This itself speaks of your instinct hidden within your rich family heritage.I feel myself fortunate to have met you in this life, for shall we as friends shall not pass this way again...🙏

Hon'ble Sir
I am amazed that being so near to you, I was unaware of the family tree which is a perfect blend of gallantry and intellect. The bare reading about the war and aftermath is goosebumped. The Rigveda is the oldest verse and theology in entire world and Vedas are said be inscribed by the God himself. The topic of blog seems to be new creation by you reflects a theologist sitting insind an intellect encyclopaedia of law.

आकाश में ध्वनि के विक्षोभ से वायु की द्वंद्व धारा उत्पन्न होती है। ध्वनि के भाव के अनुसार सुख दुखादि का स्पर्श होता है। विक्षोभ से उत्पन्न उर्ध्वगामी ऊर्जा अग्नि है और अधोगामी ऊर्जा जल है। अग्नि और जल के स्वभाविक प्रवाह को विपरीत कर दिया जाए तो यज्ञ घटित होता है और पृथ्वी तत्व की गंध सर्वत्र व्याप्त हो जाती है। पंचभूत सृष्टि इस प्रकार अहंकार और अस्मिता का निर्माण करती है। चैतन्य क्षेत्र के यह पंचभूत शुद्ध हो जाएं तो पंच भूत सिद्धि का मार्ग खुल जाता है।
