Sama Veda Quotes

“Vishnu displayed his valour. He kept his feet in three places. It is in those three places that the universe rests. Vishnu's three feet encompass the entire universe.”
― Bibek Debroy, Sama Veda

“There is a being with a thousand heads, a thousand eyes and a thousand feet. He surrounds the earth from all directions, he surrounds the universe from all directions, and yet there is more of him that is left over. This being is divided into four parts. Three of these parts exist in lofty places and the fourth part is manifested on earth. This fourth part embraces the four directions on earth. All beings who have been born and all beings who will be born are manifestations of this being. Three parts of the being are immortal and exist in heaven, and the fourth part sustains all objects on earth. This being is the lord of immortality and of food grains. He is supreme; he is the one who created the earth.”
