Mantra 8
Aindra victory and wealth secured through Soma’s purifying flow and Indra-invocation
इन्दुर्वाजी पवते गोन्योघा इन्द्रे सोमः सह इन्वन्मदाय हन्ति रक्षो बाधते पर्यरातिं वरिवस्कृण्वन्वृजनस्य राजा

Indu (Soma) yang bercahaya, pemberi daya, mengalir tersucikan, membawa sapi-sapi; bagi Indra, Soma—bersama kekuatan menolong—untuk kegirangan suci: ia membunuh Rakṣas, menolak permusuhan yang mengepung, melapangkan ruang, raja para pemuja.

{ "prastava": "(gāna-dependent; not supplied)", "udgitha": "indurvājī pavate gonyoghā |", "pratihara": "indre somaḥ saha invanmadāya |", "upadrava": "hanti rakṣo bādhate paryarātiṃ |", "nidhana": "varivaskṛṇvan vṛjanasya rājā (communal, emphatic close)", "structure_notes": "This verse lends itself to a climactic upadrava (apotropaic action) followed by a spacious nidhana (varivas) and regal seal (rājā).", "singer_assignments": "Standard trio roles; nidhana together to ‘seal’ protection." }
{ "gloss_summary": "Soma, purified, brings strength and cattle; for Indra he gives exhilaration; he destroys rakṣas and repels surrounding hostility; by making varivas (free space) he ensures unobstructed sacrifice; he is ‘king of the people’ (of worshippers/participants).", "ritual_interpretation": "Apotropaic function is primary: Soma’s purification protects the rite; varivas = unobstructed ritual space and successful completion; cattle = sacrificial fruit.", "theological_insight": "Soma is simultaneously benefaction and protection; kingship indicates sovereignty over the sacrificial community and its ordered action.", "etymology_highlights": "varivas ‘wide space, freedom’; rakṣas as obstructive beings; vṛjana ‘people/clan’ as the yajamāna’s circle." }
