Mantra 2
Soma Pavamāna’s purification through the pavitra (filter) and his enthronement as the life-giving, wealth-bestowing draught in the sacrifice

مُعْلِنًا حِكْمَةً شِعْرِيَّةً كَأُوشَنَا (Uśanā)، يَكْشِفُ الإِلَهُ مِيلَادَ الآلِهَة؛ ذُو نَذْرٍ عَظِيم، مُتَّحِدٌ بِالطُّهْر، بَافَكَ (Pāvaka) المُطَهِّر—كَالخِنْزِيرِ البَرِّي (varāha) فِي مَسِيرِهِ—يَتَقَدَّمُ نَحْوَ رِبْهَا (rebha)، مُنْشِدِ المَدْح.

{ "prastava": null, "udgitha": null, "pratihara": null, "upadrava": null, "nidhana": null, "structure_notes": "A common stotra strategy is to place the ‘proclaiming’ clause in udgītha, the ‘birth of gods’ declaration as a response-confirmed segment (pratihāra), and the epithet cascade culminating in varāhaḥ…rebhan as upadrava → nidhana. Exact division depends on the chosen uha/uhya arrangement.", "singer_assignments": "Prastotṛ initiates; Udgātṛ articulates the declarative core; Pratihartṛ answers at structural joints; nidhana is collectively settled." }
{ "gloss_summary": "Soma, like Uśanā, utters poetic wisdom and makes known the ‘births’ of the gods; he is of great ordinance, connected with purity, a purifier; boar-like in movement he advances toward the praiser.", "ritual_interpretation": "janimā devānām: the manifestation/activation of divine powers in the sacrifice through Soma; varāha: explained as one who moves forcefully/penetratingly along his path (often tied to the pressing/flow).", "theological_insight": "Soma is the revealer: through him and the stotra, divine presence becomes explicit; purity is both means and kinship (śucibandhu).", "etymology_highlights": "uśanā: name of Kāvya seer associated with effective mantra; pāvaka: ‘that which purifies’; varāha: ‘boar’ signifying forceful advance." }
