Sama Veda — Uttarārcika, Mantra 5
Pavamāna Soma’s flowing power that energizes and perfects the sacrifice
इष्कर्त्तारमध्वरस्य प्रचेतसं क्षयन्तं राधसो महः रातिं वामस्य सुभगां महीमिषं दधासि सानसिं रयिम्
iṣkarttāramadhvarasya pracetasaṃ kṣayantaṃ rādhaso mahaḥ rātiṃ vāmasya subhagāṃ mahīmiṣaṃ dadhāsi sānasiṃ rayim
iṣkarttāramadhvarasya prace1tasaṃ kṣayantaṃ rādhaso mahaḥ rātiṃ vāmasya subhagāṃ mahīmiṣaṃ dadhāsi sā2nasiṃ rayim
Tú nos dispones al sabio artífice de la ofrenda, al conocedor del adhvara, que mora en abundante riqueza; tú otorgas la rāti auspiciosa, el bien deseado, gran sustento y prosperidad por conquistar: el rayi que se gana en la victoria.

{ "gloss_summary": "iṣkartṛ understood as Agni (or Agni as agency) who ‘makes’ iṣ by cooking/transforming offerings and enabling proper presentation; rāti as the ritual gift/fruit of correct performance.", "ritual_interpretation": "Establishes Agni’s role in producing the nourishing oblation and in granting the yajamāna prosperity and auspicious results.", "theological_insight": "Agni is both process and benefaction: transformation (making iṣ) is inseparable from grace (rāti) and attainable wealth (rayi).", "etymology_highlights": "iṣ from nourishing oblation; kartṛ from √kṛ ‘to make’; pracetas from pra-√cit ‘to perceive/know’—foreknowing intelligence guiding the rite." }
