Rishi : NEDHASA Deity: AGNI
Bhrigu: The Yajamana, luminous seer of Mantra.
Twice-born: first birth in the world, the second in the Yajamana; or born of heaven and of earth.
Dyuloka: The fourth station above the triple world is the home of Agni. The Dyuloka is of two kinds: one as included in the triple world; the other is the vast realm above the triple, termed Svar.
Agni is born of the heart which is the dwelling place of the inner soul.
Established in the sacrificer is the summoner (Agni), luminous, purifier, treasure, adorable by men. Friend and lord of the household, Agni is the guardian of treasures in the mansion.
Of the race of Gotama, we laud thee, Agni, with hymns, as the lord of riches; we cleanse thee, bearer of wealth, as with a horse. May he, rich with thought, come soon at dawn.
As the Ashvins render their steed dustless, they cleanse the sacrificial place where Agni is borne.
