अग्निष्टे नि शमयतु यदि ते मन उद्युतम् । कृणोमि विद्वान् भेषजं यथानुन्मदितोऽससि
May Agni calm your mind if it is agitated; I, knowing, prepare the remedy, so that you may be restored from madness.
देवैनसादुन्मदितमुन्मत्तं रक्षसस्परि । कृणोमि विद्वान् भेषजं यदानुन्मदितोऽसति
From the gods, from the sinless, from madness, from the mad, from the demons—I, knowing, prepare the remedy, so that you may be restored from madness.
पुनस्त्वा दुरप्सरसः पुनरिन्द्रः पुनर्भगः । पुनस्त्वा दुर्विश्वे देवा यथानुन्मदितोऽससि
May the evil spirits return you, may Indra return you, may Bhaga return you, may all the unfriendly gods return you, so that you may be restored from madness.
मा ज्येष्ठं वधीदयमग्न एषां मूलबर्हणात्परि पाह्येनम् । स ग्राह्याः पाशान् वि चृत प्रजानन् तुभ्यं देवा अनु जानन्तु विश्वे
O Agni, do not let this one slay the eldest among them; protect him from the root of Yama's dispersal; loosen the binding cords, knowing, so that all the gods may recognize you.
उन् मुञ्च पाशांस्त्वमग्न एषां त्रयस्त्रिभिरुत्सिता येभिरासन् । स ग्राह्याः पाशान् वि चृत प्रजानन् पितापुत्रौ मातरं मुञ्च सर्वान्
Release the cords, O Agni, from these, the thirty-three with which they were bound; loosen the binding cords, knowing, and free the father and son, the mother, all of them.
येभिः पाशैः परिवित्तो विबद्धोऽङ्गेअङ्ग आर्पित उत्सितश्च । वि ते मुच्यन्तं विमुचो हि सन्ति भ्रूणघ्नि पूषन् दुरितानि मृक्ष्व
With whatever cords he is surrounded, bound, and fastened limb by limb—may those be released for you, for there are releasers; O Pūṣan, remover of evil, cleanse the sins that slay the unborn.
त्रिते देवा अमृजतैतदेनस्त्रित एनन् मनुष्येषु ममृजे । ततो यदि त्वा ग्राहिरानशे तां ते देवा ब्रह्मणा नाशयन्तु
The gods cleansed this sin for Trita; Trita cleansed it among men; if the seizure has seized you, may the gods destroy it with the sacred word.
मरीचीर्धूमान् प्र विशानु पाप्मन्न् उदारान् गच्छोत वा नीहारान् । नदीनं फेनामनु तान् वि नश्य भ्रूणघ्नि पूषन् दुरितानि मृक्ष्व
Let the rays, the smoke, disperse, O sin, go to the wide spaces or to the mists; follow the foam of the rivers—O Pūṣan, remover of evil, cleanse the sins that slay the unborn.
द्वादशधा निहितं त्रितस्यापमृष्टं मनुष्यैनसानि । ततो यदि त्वा ग्राहिरानशे तां ते देवा ब्रह्मणा नाशयन्तु
The guilt of man, set in twelvefold measure, washed away from Trita—if the seizure has not consumed you from that, may the gods destroy it for you by means of the sacred utterance.
यद्देवा देवहेडनं देवासश्चकृम वयम् । आदित्यास्तस्मान् नो युयमृतस्य ऋतेन मुञ्चत
Whatever offense against the gods we, the gods, have committed—O Ādityas, from that, you release us by truth, by the law of truth.
ऋतस्य ऋतेनादित्या यजत्रा मुञ्चतेह नः । यज्ञं यद्यज्ञवाहसः शिक्षन्तो नोपशेकिम
By the law of truth, O worshipful Ādityas, release us here; if, in seeking to perform the sacrifice, we have failed in the proper conduct of the rite.
मेदस्वता यजमानाः स्रुचाज्यानि जुह्वतः । अकामा विश्वे वो देवाः शिक्षन्तो नोप शेकिम
The sacrificers, rich in fat, offer ghee with the ladle; unwilling, all you gods, though seeking to perform, we have not succeeded.
यद्विद्वांसो यदविद्वांस एनांसि चकृमा वयम् । यूयं नस्तस्मान् मुञ्चत विश्वे देवाः सजोषसः
Whatever sins we have committed, knowingly or unknowingly, you, all the gods together, release us from that.
यदि जाग्रद्यदि स्वपन्न् एन एनस्योऽकरम् । भूतं मा तस्माद्भव्यं च द्रुपदादिव मुञ्चताम्
Whether awake or asleep, if I have committed this sin, may both past and future release me from it, as the pressing stone releases the stalk.
द्रुपदादिव मुमुचानः स्विन्नः स्नात्वा मलादिव । पूतं पवित्रेणेवाज्यं विश्वे शुम्भन्तु मैनसः
As one released from the pressing stone, as one cleansed after bathing from dirt, as clarified butter purified by the strainer, so may all the gods cleanse me from guilt.
6.116 यद्यामं चक्रुर्निखनन्तो अग्रे कार्षीवणा अन्नविदो न विद्यया । वैवस्वते राजनि तज्जुहोम्यथ यज्ञियं मधुमदस्तु नोऽन्नम्
If, at the beginning, those who knew food but not knowledge made this binding, as the Kārṣīvaṇas did, I offer this to King Vaivasvata; then may our sacrificial food be sweet.
वैवस्वतः कृणवद्भागधेयं मधुभागो मधुना सं सृजाति । मातुर्यदेन इषितं न आगन् यद्वा पिताऽपराद्धो जिहीदे
Vaivasvata apportions the share, he joins the honeyed portion with honey; whatever was desired by the mother did not come, or if the father erred, he withdrew.
यदीदं मातुर्यदि पितुर्नः परि भ्रातुः पुत्राच्चेतस एन आगन् । यावन्तो अस्मान् पितरः सचन्ते तेषां सर्वेषां शिवो अस्तु मन्युः
If this guilt has come to us from our mother, father, brother, or son—however many ancestors are associated with us, may all their intentions be peaceful.
अपमित्यमप्रतीत्तं यदस्मि यमस्य येन बलिना चरामि । इदं तदग्ने अनृणो भवामि त्वं पाशान् विचृतं वेत्थ सर्वान्
Whatever debt I have incurred, unpaid, by which I walk under the power of Yama—by this, O Agni, may I be free from debt; you know all the bonds that are loosened.
इहैव सन्तः प्रति दद्म एनज्जीवा जीवेभ्यो नि हराम एनत्। अपमित्य धान्यं यज्जघसाहमिदं तदग्ने अनृणो भवामि
Here and now, we return this guilt, living among the living we take it away; whatever debt I have incurred by eating another's grain, by this, O Agni, may I be free from debt.
अनृणा अस्मिन्न् अनृणाः परस्मिन् तृतीये लोके अनृणाः स्याम । ये देवयानाः पितृयाणश्च लोकाः सर्वान् पथो अनृणा आ क्षियेम
Free from debt here, free from debt elsewhere, free from debt in the third world may we be; may we dwell, free from debt, in all the paths of the worlds of the gods and ancestors.
यद्धस्ताभ्यां चकृम किल्बिषाण्यक्षाणां गत्नुमुपलिप्समानाः । उग्रंपश्ये उग्रजितौ तदद्याप्सरसावनु दत्तामृणं नः
Whatever sins we have committed with our hands, seeking to win the course of dice—may the fierce Apsaras and Ugrajita today release us from debt.
उग्रंपश्ये राष्ट्रभृत्किल्बिषाणि यदक्षवृत्तमनु दत्तं न एतत्। ऋणान् नो न ऋणमेर्त्समानो यमस्य लोके अधिरज्जुरायत्
The fierce Apsaras, the ruler of the realm, whatever gambling sins have been committed, let them release us from that; let not the debt, nor the debtor, remain in Yama's world.
यस्मा ऋणं यस्य जायामुपैमि यं याचमानो अभ्यैमि देवाः । ते वाचं वादिषुर्मोत्तरां मद्देवपत्नी अप्सरसावधीतम्
From whom I have taken a loan, whose wife I approach, whom I come to as a supplicant—may the gods make their words favorable, and may the Apsaras, wives of the gods, approve.
6.119 यददीव्यन्न् ऋणमहं कृणोम्यदास्यन्न् अग्ने उत संगृणामि । वैश्वानरो नो अधिपा वसिष्ठ उदिन् नयाति सुकृतस्य लोकम्
Whatever debt I incur by gambling or by eating, O Agni, I acknowledge; may Vaiśvānara, our lord, lead us forth to the world of the righteous.
वैश्वानराय प्रति वेदयामि यदि ऋणं संगरो देवतासु । स एतान् पाशान् विचृतं वेद सर्वान् अथ पक्वेन सह सं भवेम
To Vaiśvānara I declare: if there is any debt accumulated among the gods, he knows all the bonds that are loosened; then may we be united with the cooked offering.
वैश्वानरः पविता मा पुनातु यत्संगरमभिधावाम्याशाम् । अनाजानन् मनसा याचमानो यत्तत्रैनो अप तत्सुवामि
May Vaiśvānara, the purifier, cleanse me as I approach the conflict with hope; whatever I have done there unknowingly, asking with my mind, may I expiate that offense.
यदन्तरिक्षं पृथिवीमुत द्यां यन् मातरं पितरं वा जिहिंसिम । अयं तस्माद्गार्हपत्यो नो अग्निरुदिन् नयाति सुकृतस्य लोकम्
Whatever harm we have done to the midspace, to the earth, or to the sky, or to mother or father, may this Gārhapatya fire lead us away from that, guiding us to the world of the righteous.
भूमिर्मातादितिर्नो जनित्रं भ्रातान्तरिक्षमभिशस्त्या नः । द्यौर्नः पिता पित्र्याच्छं भवाति जामिमृत्वा माव पत्सि लोकात्
Earth is our mother, Aditi our birth-giver, the midspace our brother—let no curse befall us; heaven is our father—may the ancestral portion be auspicious; having conquered death, may we not fall from the world.
यत्रा सुहार्दः सुकृतो मदन्ति विहाय रोगं तन्वः स्वायाः । अश्लोना अङ्गैरह्रुताः स्वर्गे तत्र पश्येम पितरौ च पुत्रान्
Where friends of good heart and righteous deeds rejoice, having cast off disease from their own bodies, uninjured in their limbs, unharmed, in that heaven may we see both parents and children.
