Devi sukta, also known as Ambhrani sukta, is a hymn of the Rigveda (RV 10.125). It consists of 8 verses and is dedicated to Vak (speech).[1]

The hymn is still in use. It is recited at the end of the recitation of Devi Mahatmya.

The rishi of this sukta is Vak. It is famous because she is said to have sung it in ecstasy on realising the oneness with Brahman.
