インドラを主軸としつつ、アグニが召集者・守護者として枠づける招請。ソーマ祭のサーマンを聴かせるため、「不死者の子ら」（神々の随伴者）を呼び集める。アグニは浄化者であり、神々の舌・使者として神々を祭儀へ導き来たらしめ、神々を歌い手に好意的にする。善意（sumati）と三重の護り（tri-varūtha）を乞い、終わりには吉祥と安寧の加護を願う。

Frequently Asked Questions
Because Agni functions as the ritual messenger (dūta) and conveyer: he brings the gods—Indra included—to the sacrifice and enables offering (yajana).
In traditional interpretation (e.g., Sāyaṇa), they are divine associates/attendants of the gods who come to the sacrifice; ritually, they represent the wider divine company invited to hear the chant.
It is a plea for comprehensive safeguarding; commentators explain it as protection in three ways (often mapped to three domains of affliction or to the threefold ritual order), concluding with the request that Agni be śiva—benign.
