{ "prastava": "Prelude stobhas establishing the ‘arrival’ motif.", "udgitha": "Main line; ‘āviśan kalaśaṃ sutaḥ’ often treated as the narrative peak.", "pratihara": "Response mirroring the entry/cadence.", "upadrava": "Extension highlighting the offering designation ‘indrāya’.", "nidhana": "Collective closing cadence sealing Indra’s share.", "structure_notes": "In performance, deity-name segments frequently receive elongation and clearer pitch focus.", "singer_assignments": "Standard three-priest distribution; all on nidhana." }
{ "gloss_summary": "Pressed Soma enters the kalaśa (Soma-jar). All streams flow toward ‘śrī’ (splendour/auspiciousness). Indu is ‘dhīyate’—placed/appointed—for Indra’s share.", "ritual_interpretation": "kalaśa refers to the collecting vessel (droṇa/kalaśa context). ‘dhīyate’ = upanidhīyate/niyujyate: Soma is allocated to Indra in the offering order.", "theological_insight": "Ritual order mirrors cosmic order: correct placement (dhāraṇa/niyoga) makes the offering efficacious and sustains Indra’s victorious function.", "etymology_highlights": "dhīyate—‘dhā-dhāraṇe’ (placed/held); śrī—prosperous radiance; indu—bright drop." }
