देवो न यः पृथिवीं विश्वधाया उपक्षेति हितमित्रो न राजा। पुरःसदः शर्मसदो न वीरा अनवद्या पतिजुष्टेव नारी ॥३
devo na yaḥ pṛthivīṁ viśvadhāyā upakṣeti hitamitro na rājā, puraḥsadaḥ śarmasado na vīrā anavadyā patijuṣṭeva nārī. 3
Rig Veda 1.73.3
He is like a God upholding the world and he inhabits earth like a good and friendly king: he is like a company of heroes sitting in our front, dwelling in our house; he is as if a blameless wife beloved of her lord.
(Translation by Sri Aurobindo) Sri Aurobindo, Hymns to the Mystic Fire
मातेव यद् भरसे पप्रथानो जनंजनं धायसे चक्षसे च। वयोवयो जरसे यद् दधानः परि त्मना विषुरूपो जिगासि ॥४॥
māteva yad bharase paprathāno janañjanaṁ dhāyase cakṣase ca, vayovayo jarase yad dadhānaḥ pari tmanā viṣurūpo jigāsi. 4
Rig Veda 5.15.4
When growing wide thou bearest like a mother birth after birth for firm foundation, for vision, when thou holdest and wearest out manifestation after manifestation, taking many forms thou en-compassest all things with thyself.
