Atharva Veda XII, 1, 13<\/p>\n
Whatever sin is found in me, whatever wrong I may have done, if I have lied or falsely sworn, Waters, remove it far from me.<\/p>\n
Rig Veda X, 9, 8<\/p>\n

Rig Veda X, 9, 9<\/p>\n
The mighty burden of the mountains bulk rests, Earth, upon your shoulders; rich in torrents, you germinate the seed with quickening power.<\/p>\n
Rig Veda V, 84, 1<\/p>\n
