Sukta 58

Rishi: Unspecified here (to be resolved via Anukramaṇī for AVŚ 7.58).

Devata: Indra-Varuṇa; Soma as offering/deity.

Chandas: Likely Triṣṭubh (to be verified against full hymn).

Himne Paustika yang singkat ini merupakan rumusan “penerimaan anna–soma”, mengundang Indra dan Varuṇa untuk meminum Soma yang telah diperas, manis laksana madu, serta duduk di atas barhis, sehingga persembahan itu disahkan. Dengan memastikan partisipasi para dewa yang berkenan dalam ritus, himne ini bertujuan meneguhkan pangan (anna), daya hidup, dan kemakmuran yang tertib di bawah ketetapan ilahi yang kokoh.

Frequently Asked Questions

To get divine acceptance of the offering—especially Soma/andhas—so that food (anna) becomes a source of strength, nourishment, and stable prosperity.

Indra represents invigorating power and increase, while Varuṇa represents firm ordinance and ṛta. Together they symbolize prosperity that is both strong and properly sanctioned.

In Atharvanic domestic practice, Soma is often represented by a ritually acceptable substitute drink offered with purity and intention; the hymn’s focus is the consecration and acceptance of nourishment.
