Paippalāda-Saṃhitā · Chapter 2.23

2.23.1

gavāṃ gṛhāṇāṃ rasam oṣadhīnām
anujyeṣṭhaṃ varca āyur vikalpya |
sa mā hiṃsīḥ pitarau vardhamāno
bhadrāc chreyāṃsam abhi lokam ehi ||

2.23.2

yadīdaṃ bhaktaṃ yadi vā vibhaktaṃ
kṣetraṃ devānāṃ yadi vā pitṝṇām |
yadi sūrya udite yadi vā manuṣyavac
chivā no astu pṛthivī uta dyauḥ ||

2.23.3

ūrjo vāṃ bhāgo vara ā pṛthivyā
devī dvārau brahmaṇā vāṃ dhārayāmi |
śivaṃ śagmam avasānaṃ no astu
rātaṃ devebhiḥ pitṛbhir manuṣyaiḥ ||

2.23.4

viśvāvasos tvā sadanaṃ kulāyaṃ
gandharvāso vedhaso mahyam ūcuḥ |
sa mā hiṃsīḥ śevadhiṃ yaṃ ta etaṃ
śataṃ himāḥ pari dadmo manuṣyam ||

2.23.5

rudrā utse sadam akṣīyamāṇe
devā madanti pitaro manuṣyāḥ |
ayaṃ bhāgo bhāgapatiś ca devā
urvīr astaryāḥ śaradas tarema ||
