Mantra 5
Indra praised as Vṛtra-slayer who accepts stotra and Soma, granting prosperity to the observant patron
शं पदं मघं रयीषिणो न काममव्रतो हिनोति न स्पृशद्रयिम्
śaṃ padaṃ maghaṃ rayīṣiṇo na kāmamavrato hinoti na spṛśadrayim
śaṃ padaṃ1 maghaṃ rayīṣiṇo2 na kāmamavrato3 hinoti na spṛśadrayim
The auspicious station, the bounty, the desire of the opulent (worshipper)—the man void of observance neither impels it away nor attains that wealth.
śam | padam | magham | rayīṣiṇaḥ | na | kāmam | avrataḥ | hinoti | na | spṛśat | rayim

{ "gloss_summary": "‘Avrata’ is one who neglects sacrificial observances; such a person neither dislodges the welfare/wealth of the observing patron nor attains that wealth himself.", "ritual_interpretation": "Affirms the efficacy and protection of correct observance (vrata) within yajña; prosperity is ritually safeguarded.", "theological_insight": "Indra’s gifts are covenantal: they adhere to ṛta via observance; disorder cannot appropriate ṛta’s fruit.", "etymology_highlights": "avrata = a- (negation) + vrata (vow/observance); spṛś = ‘to touch/attain’; śam as auspicious welfare." }
