Rigvedic rivers
Rivers, such as the Sapta Sindhu ("seven rivers") (サンスクリット:सप्त सिंधू) ,〔e.g. RV 2.12; RV 4.28; RV 8.24〕 play a prominent part in the hymns of the Rigveda, and consequently in early Vedic religion. It may have been derived from an older Proto-Indo-Iranian hydronym, as a cognate name, ''hapta həndu'', exists in the Avestan language.
==Mythology==
A recurring theme in the Yajurveda is that of Indra slaying Vritra (literally "the obstacle"), liberating the rivers; in a variant of the myth, Indra smashes the Vala cave, releasing the cows that were within. Though the two myths are separate,〔H.-P. Schmidt, Brhaspathi and Indra, Wiesbaden 1968〕 rivers and cows are often poetically correlated in the Rigveda, for example in 3.33, a notable hymn describes the crossing of two swollen rivers by the chariots and wagons of the Bharata tribe:
:3.33.1cd ''Like two bright mother cows who lick their youngling, Vipas and Sutudri speed down their waters.'' (trans. Griffith) 〔http://www.sacred-texts.com/hin/rigveda/rv03033.htm〕
