With how much of himself penetrated the Support into the past? With how much into the future? In that single limb whose thousand parts he fashioned with how much of himself did he enter, that Support?
Atharva Veda X, 7, 9
Through whom men know the worlds and what enwraps them, the waters and Holy Word, the all-powerful in whom are found both Being and Nonbeing–Tell me of that Support–who may he be?
Atharva Veda X, 7, 10
By whom Creative Fervor waxing powerful upholds the highest Vow, in whom unite Cosmic Order and Faith, the waters and the Word–Tell me of that Support–who may he be?
Atharva Veda X, 7, 11
On whom is firmly founded earth and sky and the air in between; so too the fire, moon, sun, and wind, each knowing his own place–Tell me of that Support–who may he be?
Atharva Veda X, 7, 12
In whose one limb all the Gods, three and thirty in number, are affixed–Tell me of that Support–who may he be?
Atharva Veda X, 7, 13
