Mantra 11
Sukta 5
तानि सर्वाण्यप क्रामन्ति ब्रह्मगवीमाददानस्य जिनतो ब्राह्मणं क्षत्रियस्य
tā́ni sárvāṇy ápa krāmanti brahma-gavī́m ādadānásya jinató brā́hmaṇaṃ kṣatríyasya
All those depart away from him who taketh the Brahmin’s cow, from the Kṣatriya who would overbear the Brahmin.
كلُّ ذلك يبتعدُ عنه—عن مَن يأخذُ بقرةَ البراهمة، وعن الكْشَتْرِيَة (Kṣatriya) الذي يريدُ أن يَغْلِبَ البراهمةَ ويقهرَهم.
Rishi: As for AV 12.5 (Anukramaṇī verification pending).
Devata: Brahman (sacral authority) / the moral force protecting Brahmins.
Chandas: Anuṣṭubh-like cadence (to be confirmed).
{"primary_rasa":"raudra","secondary_rasa":"vira","emotional_arc":"From sweeping condemnation to pointed political-theological warning against kṣatriya domination.","listener_experience":"A forceful sense of justice; fear for the offender, reassurance for the protected.","intensity":7}
