(The faculties are faculties of perception, thought and will which normally wander over the world of outside reality but which are controlled, concentrated and inverted in meditation and focussed on the presence of divinity within, and then the presence reveals itself in all its refulgent glory.) (Rigved 9-93-1)

ओ३म् त्रिरस्मै सप्त धेनवो दुदुह्रिरे सत्यामाशिरं परमे व्योमनि।

English:- Thrice seven ‘cows’, creative powers of natural evolution, generate the milky strain of vitality added to the evolving reality in the service of the creator Soma in the cosmic yajna in absolute time and space, Soma who also created four other beautiful orders of existence for the glory and sanctity of existence which grows by the laws of cosmic dynamics. (Rigved 9-70-1)
(The seven cows may be interpreted as the seven evolutes of Prakrti: mahan, ahankara and five subtle elements of ether or akasha, energy or vayu, fire or agni, water or apah, and earth or prthivi. Three are orders of sattva or thought, rajas or motion, and tamas or matter. This makes the thrice seven, the four other beautiful orders of existence may be interpreted as mana (mind), buddhi (discriminative intelligence), chitta (memory) and ahankara (I-sense or existential personality). Another interpretation could be the four Vedas, knowledge, the corresponding order of existence in terms of awareness and expression.)

English:- He, loving, sharing and pervading the immortal beauty of existence, orders and adorns both heaven and earth with his art, intelligence and poetic sublimity, also vesting the vapours of the middle regions with his might and splendour. Those who know the reality of the lord's creation alongwith his power, love and generosity really know and share the bliss. (Rigved 9-70-2)
ओ३म् ते अस्य सन्तु केतवोऽमृत्यवोऽदाभ्यासो जनुषी उभे अनु।
