Detailed explanation-1: -The Nāsadīya Sūkta (after the incipit ná ásat, or “not the non-existent"), also known as the Hymn of Creation, is the 129th hymn of the 10th mandala of the Rigveda (10:129). It is concerned with cosmology and the origin of the universe.
Detailed explanation-2: -The Moon was gendered from his mind, and from his eye the Sun had birth; Indra and Agni from his mouth were born, and Vayu from his breath.

Detailed explanation-3: -The first Mandala ("book") of the Rigveda has 191 hymns.
