________________ (i) As a Father to the son: Tvaṁ hi nah pitā vaso tvas mātā satakrato baūvitha Adhā te sumnam imahe. (RV, 8/98/11) i.e., Bounteous One! Thou art our Father; and our Mother, O Lord, Thou hast been. Now we pray for Thy bliss. Agnim manye pitaram agnim apim agnim bhrātaram sadam it sakhāyam. (RV, 10/7/3) i.e., The Deity I deem my Father, my Kinsman, my Brother, deem Him my Friend for ever. Sa nah piteva sūnave ‘gne sūpāyano bhava Sacasvā nah svastaye. (RV, 1/1/9) i.e., Lord, be unto us easy of access, as a father is to his son, May you be ever-present with us for our sake. Yo nah pitā janitä yo vidhätā. (RV, 10/82/3) i.e. He is our father, our begetter, our creator. Trātā no bodhi dadrśāna āpirabhikhyātā marditā somyānām Sakhā pitā pitrtamah pitrnāṁ kartemulokam usate vayodhāḥ. (RV, 4/17/17) i.e. May you be our preserver, watching and blessing all and bestowing felicity on those who are worthy and offer libations. May you be a friend, a sire, most fatherly of fathers, giver of food, bestowing heavenly bliss upon him who desires it. Sakrt su no maghavannindra mrdayādhā piteva no bhava. (RV, 10/33/3) i.e. Show Thy mercy on us once, O Gracious Lord! Be like a Father to us. 648
