That your arrow which is the kindliest of all and your bow which is auspicious.

O Dweller in the mountains, the arrow you bear in your hand for hurling,

1

Bow (dhanu) symbolises the aim of action, the arrow symbolises the movement in action.

manyu: righteous wrath; it is not the usual human quality of anger or wrath; it is Rudra's

3

force which is intolerant of defect and stumbling; it smites both the enemy and the loiterer.

All the commentators associate Rudra of the Veda with the Puranic legends of Ĺšiva such as

Rudra: one who removes (ra) the misery that causes crying; one who causes pain.

dwelling in the KailaĹ›a mountain, getting a dark throat by drinking the hÄ lÄ hala poison

2

dhanu: bow, that which provides the aim of action; arrow is the instrument.

giriśanta: he who gives bliss (sham) staying in the mantra (gir); dweller in the mountain.

etc. All these legends are symbols whose meanings are clarified at the relevant places here.
