in the texts
Rigveda
Poetic clan who invoke Vaiśvānara Agni and by whom Agni is kindled age after age.
Meditating upon Vaiśvānara Agni, the ever-present, the finder of heaven — we who hold oblations, desiring wealth, we the Kuśikas invoke with our hymns the good-giving, joyful god, the charioteer.
Neighing like a horse, Vaiśvānara is kindled by the Kuśikas age after age.
We the Kuśikas, seeking aid, invoke you, O ancient Indra, for the drinking of the pressed Soma.
