Agni, lord of light and knowledge, sagely scholar

of wisdom and piety, bring together into this yajna of

love and non-violence the people, children of reflective

humanity, who sprinkle the vedi with holy water and

scholars of twenty four, thirty six and forty eight years

discipline and perform yajna in honour of the Vasus,

eight abodes of life in nature, Rudras, eleven vitalities

of life, and Adityas, twelve phases of the yearly round
