AVedicHymn
Rig Veda VII.60
O Sun, O Light, because today blameless in thy rising thou hast
declared the Truth to the Lord of Love and the Lord of Purity, so
may we abide in the godhead, dear to thee, O Mother infinite,
dear to thee, O Lord of Strength, in all our speaking. O Mitra, O

earth and heaven in the pervading wideness, and he guards all
that is in motion and all that is stable; for he beholds the straight

this Bright One yoked today in the world of our achievement and
they bear him on in their clarity, and he beholds the homes of
the soul and the places of its birth like a herdsman who watches

Upward rise your honied satisfactions; for our sun has
climbed into the ocean of pure Light and for him the Children
of the Infinite hew out his paths, even the Lord of Love and
the Lord of Strength and the Lord of Purity in one harmony.
These are they that discern and separate all the much falsehood
in us; they are the Lords of Love and Strength and Purity. These
grow in the house of Truth, puissant and unvanquished Sons of
the Infinite. These are the Love and the Purity hard to repress
who by their discernings give knowledge to him who has no
knowledge; they bring to him their impulses of a will that has
right vision and they lead him by the good path beyond the evil.
These with sleepless eyes see and know in his earth for man
that is ignorant and lead him: in his forward faring he comes to
the fathomless pit in the river, yet shall they bear him across to
the other shore of this wideness. The peace and the protection
and the happiness which the infinite Mother and the Lords of
Love and Purity give to the servant of the sacrifice, in that let us
