Pali Tripitka in Devanagali Script
The word Vinaya (विनय) appears in the Rigveda in the following passage from Ṛgveda 2.24.9. The Saṁhitā text reads: “स संनयः स विनयः पुरोहितः स सुष्टुतः स युधि ब्रह्मणस्पतिः । चाक्ष्मो यद्वाजं भरते मती धनादित्सूर्यस्तपति तप्यतुर्वृथा ॥” (Ṛgveda 2.24.9; Aṣṭaka 2.7.2.4). In the accented Saṁhitā recension it appears as: “स सं॑न॒यः स वि॑न॒यः पु॒रोहि॑त॒: स सुष्टु॑त॒: स यु॒धि ब्रह्म॑ण॒स्पति॑: । चा॒क्ष्मो यद्वाजं॒ भर॑ते म॒ती धनादित्सूर्य॑स्तपति तप्य॒तुर्वृथा॑ ॥”. The Padapāṭha separates the compound forms as: “सः । सम्ऽनयः । सः । विऽनयः । पुरःऽहितः । सः । सुऽस्तुतः । सः । युधि । ब्रह्मणः । पतिः ॥”, showing the occurrence of the term “वि-नयः” in an early Vedic context.
The verse “स संनयः स विनयः पुरोहितः स सुष्टुतः स युधि ब्रह्मणस्पतिः । चाक्ष्मो यद्वाजं भरते मती धनादित्सूर्यस्तपति तप्यतुर्वृथा ॥” from Rigveda (Ṛgveda 2.24.9) is addressed to Brahmaṇaspati (Bṛhaspati), the lord of sacred prayer and wisdom. In this passage, the expressions sa saṁnayaḥ and sa vinayaḥ describe him as one who leads, guides, disciplines, and brings people into proper order. The term vinaya here carries the early Vedic sense of “guidance,” “discipline,” or “proper conduct,” rather than the later specifically Buddhist monastic meaning. The verse praises Brahmaṇaspati as the honored priest (purohitaḥ), well-praised (suṣṭutaḥ), and powerful in battle, who grants strength, wisdom, and wealth to his devotees, just as the sun burns away darkness and falsehood.
