{ "prastava": "Stobha-led cue into ‘indro aṅga…’ (not supplied).", "udgitha": "Main dramatic action: ‘indro aṅga mahad bhayam abhī ṣat’.", "pratihara": "Response reinforcing removal: ‘apa cucyavat’.", "upadrava": "Reason/grounding: ‘sa hi sthiro…’.", "nidhana": "Final authority on ‘vicarṣaṇiḥ’ (often lengthened to establish firmness).", "structure_notes": "Text naturally divides into deed (fear struck/removed) and justification (steadfast ruler); ideal for udgītha→upadrava contrast.", "singer_assignments": "Prastotṛ sets the protective tone; Udgātṛ delivers the ‘strike’ with controlled force; Pratihartṛ answers on the removal clause; all stabilize together in the nidhana." }
{ "gloss_summary": "‘Fear’ is taken as peril—hostile forces, calamity, or obstruction to the rite; Indra smites and removes it; sthira indicates Indra’s reliability; vicarṣaṇi glossed as lord/ruler of men/peoples.", "ritual_interpretation": "Protects yajamāna and yajña from impediments; Indra’s steadiness guarantees successful completion of Soma rite.", "theological_insight": "Divine protection is expressed as both active removal of danger and the establishment of stable governance over human affairs.", "etymology_highlights": "vicarṣaṇi interpreted as ‘ruling among men’ (nṛṇām adhipati-like sense); sthira as unwavering support for the rite." }
