This app contains an ancient hymn from the Vedic Hindu Atharvaveda, translated into English in a style similar to the King James Bible. Each hymn reveals many fascinating aspects of ancient Indo-Aryan culture, history, and religion. Great for meditation, bhakti, praise, or scholarly study! This particular hymn honors God in the form of Indra (Maghavan) who won the Light of Heaven for humanity, during a Vedic sacrificial offering (Yajna). One may wish to note a remarkable line in Verse 6: "Maghavan (the magnanimous one) came by turns to all the tribes of men".
