Rigveda
A goddess of abundance/wisdom associated with Agni's alliance with the waters.
Accomplishing friendship with the waters and with Dhiṣaṇā, the gods sustained Agni, the giver of wealth.
— truly the two pressing stones in the lap of Dhiṣaṇā.
For your delight, O Indrāgnī, the divine Dhiṣaṇā, full of eagerness, presses the Soma.
Atharvaveda (Paippalāda)
Goddess associated with abundance, referenced as the source from whose lap the soma-drop falls.
Whatever drop of yours spills, whatever shoot of yours has fallen from the arm, from the lap of Dhiṣaṇā, or that which falls around the purifying-cloth of the adhvaryu priests — that I offer to you, made into an oblation by the mind.
