Rig Veda
Mandala 1 - Sukta 89 - Rik 6

ॐ स्वस्ति न इन्द्रो वृद्धश्रवाः स्वस्ति नः पूषा विश्ववेदाः |
स्वस्ति नस् तार्क्ष्यो अरिष्टनेमिः स्वस्ति नो बृहस्पतिर् दधातु ||

May lndra of the full-grown hearing bring to us the Su­preme Welfare. May the all-knowing Fosterer also bring to us the Supreme Welfare. And the Fashioner whose cha­riot wheels move on unhurt, may he too bring to us the Supreme Welfare. And the same Supreme Welfare may Brihaspati establish in us.
