ŚĀ 12.1
Om. May the elephant's splendour spread abroad, the great vigour which arose from Aditi's body. / That all these Ādityas, in agreement with Aditi, have bestowed upon me. ||1
Whatever great splendour is placed in you, O Jātavedas, / with that splendour, O Agni, make me splendid. ||2
Whatever splendour is placed in man, and whatever in elephants, / whatever splendour is in gold, in cattle—may that elephant's splendour be in me! ||3
Whatever glory is in dice, in gold, in cattle, in horses, / in surā being purified—may that elephant's splendour be in me! ||4
In me be brilliance, in me be greatness, in me whatever glory of the sacrifice! / May Prajāpati firmly establish that in me, as heaven in the sky! ||5
