A third time he grasped him; he said to him, ‘Why dost thou grasp me?’ He replied, ‘Give me a third name, for with two names only I shall not eat food here. He answered, ‘Thou art the lord of cattle.’ Since Vāyu is the lord of cattle, the lord of cattle harms him not, nor his offspring, nor his cattle, nor any one claiming to be his. He who hates him becomes worse, not he who knows thus. His vow is ‘One should not speak ill of a Brahman.’ > — Arthur Berriedale Keith 1920, Rigveda Brahmanas: The Aitareya and Kauṣītaki Brāhmaṇas of the Rigveda (HOS 25) - [Previous: 6.2.28](https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.kausitaki.6.2.28) - [Next: 6.2.30](https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.kausitaki.6.2.30) - [Up: 6.2](https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.kausitaki.6.2) ## Translations (2) - [Rigveda Brahmanas: The Aitareya and Kauṣītaki Brāhmaṇas of the Rigveda (HOS 25)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.kausitaki~en-keith.6.p6) — Arthur Berriedale Keith 1920, English - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.kausitaki~en-mt.6.2.29) — English, machine translation --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.kausitaki.6.2.29](https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.kausitaki.6.2.29) · Pramāṇa
