Where woman is honored, there the gods rejoice - Rig Veda

 

In the hymns of the Rig Veda, woman is not merely born of man — she is born of Fire.

Through her flows the hidden pulse of creation; through her eyes, the gods behold the dawn.

Agni: The Mystic Fire of the Rig Veda and the Yoga of Inner Flame

The Rig Veda, the oldest surviving scripture of humanity, begins with a hymn to Agni, the fire. This is not a coincidence. Fire, for the Vedic seers, was more than a physical element; it was the living presence of the divine, the mediator between human aspiration and cosmic reality.

Agni is invoked as purohita — the inner priest, the guide of the soul. Every offering, every mantra, every yearning for truth is carried by Agni upward, bridging earth and heaven. Fire was the first altar, the first messenger, the first guru.
