Rig Veda

  1. BṚHASPATI lead us safely over troubles and turn his evil thought against the sinner; Repel the curse, and drive away ill-feeling, and give the sacrificer peace and comfort! 2 May Narāśaṁsa aid us at Prayāja: blest be our Anuyāja at invokings. May he repel the curse, and chase ill-feeling, and give the sacrificer peace and comfort. 3 May he whose head is flaming burn the demons, haters of prayer, so that the arrow slay them. May he repel the curse and chase ill-feeling, and give the sacrificer peace and comfort.
