Subject: Pañcarudra Sūkta. This sūkta is composed of the following: - I. कदुद्राय०
Antaka. I. 3. 26-27. (9 Rks). II. इमा रुद्राय
I. 8. 5-6. (11 Rks). III. आ ते पितर्मरुतां० , II. 7. 16-18. (18 Rks). IV. सोमारुद्रा०
V. 1. 18. (4 Bks). v. इमा रुद्राय स्थिर० , V. 4. 13.
(4 Rks). Total No. of Rks 46. Remarks:-The Name "Paicarudra" is quite consistent with
the contents of this Sūkta since the main sections of this sūkta are five and extols the virtues of god Rudra. The विनियोग of the पञ्चरुद्रसूक्त is thus given in the Rgvidhāna of Saunaka:
'रौद्रीमिष्षड्भिरीशानं तुयाद्यो दिने दिने ।
स नारीसहितः शान्ति शंकरात् प्राप्नुयात् सदा ।। एतेनैव षडर्चेन जुहुयादाज्यमन्वहम् । चरं च कल्पये द्रौद्रं भूतिकामोऽथ पर्वसु ६ इमा इति जपेच्छश्वत् रौद्रसूक्तं द्विजः शुचिः ।
आयुर्वियां धनं पुतान् गृहांश्चाप्नोत्यनामयान् ॥" The Babyscas use these five sūktas generally during the abhineka cereinony of the Sivalinga during their daily püjā. The Ms. is accented and is in fairly good condition.
