Hello,

I came across this interesting passage in the Rig Veda 1.22.2

recently:

 

Dirghatamas, the son of mamata, has grown old after the tenth yuga

has passed, he is the Brahma of those who seek to obtain the object

of their pious works, he is their charioteer.

 

Can anybody throw further light on this archaic passage?

Yuga is an age of a cycle.

Brahma is the Upanishadic creator god.

Dirghatamas is a rishi, the Brahma of seekers, their leader and

charioteer.
