Mantra 3
Aindra stuti: Indra as the collectively ‘fashioned’ and manifest power who conquers battles and grants sovereignty through soma-inspired praise

اجتمعتْ كلُّ القوى بعِزّةٍ إلى سيّدِ السماء؛ هو وحدَه صارَ ضيفَ الناس. هو القديمُ، ومع ذلك يبتغي الظَّفَرَ من جديدٍ مرّةً بعد مرّة؛ وهو وحدَه يمضي قُدُمًا، متّبعًا المسالك.

Aindra (generic/unspecified in input)
{ "prastava": "(stobha prelude establishing the ‘gathering’ mood)", "udgitha": "sameta viśvā ojasā patiṃ divo ...", "pratihara": "(echo/answer, often aligning with ‘ekaḥ’ cadence)", "upadrava": "... taṃ varttanīr anu vāvṛta ekaḥ it", "nidhana": "(final sustained closure on it/ekaḥ with chorus)", "structure_notes": "Likely melodic repetitions around ‘ekaḥ’ and ‘atithiḥ’; actual segmentation depends on gāna text.", "singer_assignments": "Prastotṛ opens; Udgātṛ carries main ascent; Pratihartṛ answers at cadence; all conclude nidhana." }
{ "gloss_summary": "atithi is the deity invited into the sadas to partake of Soma; pūrvya/nūtanam expresses the god as eternally ancient yet newly manifest at each sacrifice; ‘paths’ are the tracks along which he proceeds.", "ritual_interpretation": "The verse functions as an āhvāna (invitation) and āsana (seating) mood—establishing Indra’s guesthood so Soma-offering becomes receivable.", "theological_insight": "Divinity is ever-present but becomes ‘guest’ through ritual invitation; repeated sacrifice is a perpetual ‘new winning’ of the same eternal power.", "etymology_highlights": "atithi: ‘one who comes without a fixed day’ → the unexpectedly arriving divine presence; nūtanam: ever-fresh manifestation." }
