Rig Veda Hymn to Agni and the Gods, Mandala X, Sukta 51

In The Secret of the Veda, Sri Aurobindo showed that there is a deep, esoteric sense to the Vedic hymns that is the real sense of the hymns.  This Hymn to Agni and the Gods describes the relationship of the aspiration and will to the powers of the creation.  The English translation was provided by Sri Aurobindo in Hymns to the Mystic Fire, pp. 405-407.  The recordings were made at Sri Aurobindo Ashram in 1973.  Sanskrit recited by Sri Vinayak.  English translation recited by Santosh Krinsky
