Sangatan Sukta

Prayers for universal peace

This ंगठन ूक्त (Sangathan sukta) is the final four verses of the Rig Veda. This sukta extols the virtues of unity, harmony, and collective action. It emphasizes the importance of people coming together with one mind, one purpose, and one voice to achieve common goals and live in peace and prosperity. It is often cited for its powerful message of solidarity and cooperation within a community or society. The first verse in this sukta is a recognition of God’s unique powers and the other three verses are Vedic Injunctions, instructions from God to Humans.

Below are the verses of the Sangathan Sukta with the hindi meaning in song format. (For each verse with its word meaning and discussion, please go to page 2)

संसमिद्युवसे वृषन्नग्ने विश्वान्यर्य
इळस्पदे समिध्यसे सनो वसून्या भर

Sam-samid-yu-vase vriṣhann-agne
vish-vaany-arya aa.
Ilas-pade samidyase
sa-no vasoonayaa bhara.1

संगच्छध्वं संवदध्वं संवोमनांसि जानताम्
देवा भागं यथापूर्वे संजानाना उपासते

Sam-gacchadvam sam-vadadvam
sam-vo-manaamsi janaatam.
Devaa bhaagam yathaa-poorve
sam-jaanaanaa upaasate.2

समानमंत्रः समितिः समानी समानं मनः सह चित्तमेषाम्
समानं मन्त्रमभिमन्त्रयेवाः समानेन वो हविषा जुहोमि

Samaano mantrah samitih samaanee
samaanam manah saha chittam-eṣhaam.
Samaanam mantra-abhi-mantra-ye-vaah
samaanena vo haviṣhaa juhomi.3

समानीआकूतिः समानहृदयानि वः
समानमस्तु वो मनो यथा वः सुसहासति

Samaanee va aakootih
samaanaa hridayaani vah.
Samaanam-astu vo mano
yathaa vah susa-haa-sati.4

MEANING IN SONG FORMAT

हे प्रभु तुम शक्तिशाली हो बनाते श्रिष्टि को।
वेद सब गाते तुम्हें हैं किजिए धन वृष्टि को ।

He prabhu tum shakti shaalee ho banaate srishti ko
Veda sab gaate rahe hai keejiye dhan vrishti ko

प्रेम े मिल कर चलो बोलो सभी ज्ञानी बनो ।
पूर्वजो की भांति तुम कर्तव के माी बनो ।

Prem se mil kar chalo bolo sabhee jyaani bano.
Poorvajo kee bhaati tum kartavya ke maani bano

हो विार साम सबके चित्त मन सब एक हो ।
ज्ञान देता हूँ बराबार भोग पा सब ेक हो ।

Ho vichaar samaan sabke chitta man sab ek ho
Jyaan detaa hoo baraavar bhogya paa sab nek ho.

हो सभी के दिल तथा संकल्प अविरोधी सदा
मन भरे हो प्रेम े जिससे बढ़े सुख सम्पदा ॥

Ho sabhee ke dil tathaa sankalpa avirodhee sadaa.
Man bhare ho prem se jis-se barhe sukh sampadaa.

Oh Lord, You are the mighty,
Creator of all existence.
The Vedas all sing Your praises,
Please shower us with abundant sustenance.

And the Lord says with his Light
Walk together in love, speak as one, all wise and bright,
Like your ancestors, be known for doing what is right.

May all minds share one thought, hearts and souls united be,
I give knowledge equally, that all may justly thrive and see.

May all hearts and resolves forever be in tune,
May minds overflow with love, so joy and wealth commune.
