Rishi: Atharvanic tradition (precise r̥ṣi requires anukramaṇī)
Devata: Indra (as kevalī) and Soma (ritual medium)
Chandas: Anuṣṭubh-like (Atharvanic social-rite verse; moderately regular)
It is used to create concord—bringing a divided group into one-minded agreement and stabilizing communal decisions or alliances.
Here “kevalī” highlights Indra as an undisputed central authority who can integrate multiple clans (viśaḥ) into a single, coordinated social order.
In domestic or non-śrauta settings, Soma is commonly treated as the ritual essence and may be represented by a consecrated substitute offering, while keeping the hymn’s intent and ‘firm oblation’ principle intact.
