The Religion and Philosophy of the Veda and Upanishads v1.c16.s5.4

v1.c16.s5.4

The seat of Vivasvant is a special feature of the god: it is mentioned five times: in it the singers praise the greatness of Indra or of the waters; the gods and Indra delight in it, nor can it be doubted that it is meant, when it is said that a new hymn is placed in Vivasvant as a centre (*nābhi*).
