Rig Veda I, 92, 15
O powerful Spirits, with one mind and will direct your chariot toward our home and make it rich in cattle and gold.
Rig Veda I, 92, 16

May those who wake at dawn bring hither the Gods, the givers of refreshment and doers of marvels, on paths of gold that they may drink Soma.
Rig Veda I, 92, 18
The Lord, Isa, supports all this which has been joined together-the perishable and the imperishable, the manifest, the effect and the unmanifest, the cause. The same Lord, the Supreme Self, devoid of Lordship, becomes bound because of assuming the attitude of the enjoyer. The jiva again realizes the Supreme Self and is freed from all fetters.
Yajur Veda, Svetasvatara Upanishad, Part I, Chapter 1, 8
