Dashati 7
Agni as the victorious, wealth-bestowing sacrificial power who destroys impediments and brings prayer’s fruit (offspring, prosperity) to the yajamāna.
Agni (Jātavedas)
Uplifting and forceful—protective victory-oriented praise with a bright (śukra) sacrificial tone.
Ṛṣi not supplied; identification requires concordance with the underlying Ṛgvedic source hymn(s) and the Sāmavedic anukramaṇī. Many Agni/Indra verses in this region commonly trace to established RV families but this dashati cannot be safely assigned without mapping.
Agni (Jātavedas), daya kurban yang menang dan penganugerahan harta, dinyalakan oleh pujian dan persembahan (āhuti) untuk menghancurkan para penghalang dan segala rintangan, meneguhkan ritus, serta mengubah daya brahman (mantra suci) menjadi berkah nyata bagi yajamāna: draviṇa (kekayaan) dan prajā (keturunan), beserta keberhasilan yang berkelanjutan; Indra (Śatakratu/Maghavān) dipanggil sebagai penguat perang, menegakkan vajra untuk menundukkan lawan dan melindungi kemenangan sang pemuja.
