Meaning -
Agni, divine energy of the cosmos, three are your media: radiation, conduction and gravitation; three your seats: solar region, middle region and the earthly region (dyu loka, antariksha loka and prthivi loka); three your tongues: light, thunder and greenery; O power eternal, risen from the cosmic law of Rtam. Three are your forms: day, lightning and night, energised by nature; and three your sacred fuels: solar particles of energy, vapours and fertility of the earth. Agni, divine fire, protect and nourish our tongue and speech seriously without relent or reserve.$Note: The allegory of cosmic fire energy is beautifully explained in Chhandogya Upanishad 5, 4- 8, and in Brhadaranyaka Upanishad 6, 9-13.$Swami Dayananda also interprets Agni as the sagely scholar whose three media of existence are jnana, gamana and prapti, i.e., knowledge, expression and movement, and attainment and acquisition. We might add in the same vein that his three seats of origin are the parental home of natural birth, the teacher’s home of educational and cultural birth and the family home of professional birth. Of course, after retirement his life is lived in an open social and universal home of no dimensions and no boundaries.
