v2.c4.s9.111

Sam-jñāna, ‘concord,’ ‘harmony,’ is mentioned from the Rigveda¹ onwards² as a matter of great consequence; the Atharvaveda contains many spells to bring it about. The lack of peace in the Vedic village was almost inevitable in view of its small size and the economic interdependence of its inhabitants. Cf. Bhrātṛvya.
