Mantra 4
Aindra āhvāna: inviting Indra to the Soma with praise of his swift approach and heroic power
स पूर्व्यो महोनां वेनः क्रतुभिरानजे यस्य द्वारा मनुः पिता देवेषु धिय आनजे
sa pūrvyo mahonāṃ venaḥ kratubhirānaje yasya dvārā manuḥ pitā deveṣu dhiya ānaje
sa1 pū2rvyo ma2ho3nāṃ ve1naḥ kra2tu3bhirā1naje ya1sya dvā1rā ma1nuḥ pi1tā de2ve3ṣu dhi1ya ā1naje
അവൻ പ്രാചീനൻ, മഹാദേവന്മാരിൽ അഭിലഷണീയനായ വേന; തന്റെ ക്രതുക്കളാൽ (ശക്തി/സങ്കൽപങ്ങളാൽ) പ്രാപിച്ചവൻ; അവന്റെ ദ്വാരത്തിലൂടെയാണ് നമ്മുടെ പിതാവായ മനു ദേവന്മാരിലേക്കു ധീ (ഭക്തിഭരിതമായ ചിന്ത) സഹിതം സമീപിച്ചത്.

{ "prastava": "Prelude establishing ‘saḥ…’ (the ‘he’—pointing to the deity).", "udgitha": "Primeval-desirable identification: pūrvyo… venaḥ…", "pratihara": "Response confirming method: kratubhir ānaje.", "upadrava": "Gateway narrative: yasya dvārā manuḥ pitā…", "nidhana": "Final approach: deveṣu dhiya ānaje (cadenced together).", "structure_notes": "Narrative naturally builds from deity’s status → means (kratu) → gateway → ancestral approach; ideal for fivefold articulation.", "singer_assignments": "Standard udgātṛ team; collective nidhana emphasizes communal inheritance from Manu." }
{ "gloss_summary": "pūrvya = ādi-kālīna; vena = kāmyaḥ/stutyaḥ; kratubhiḥ = prajñā-yajña-karmabhiḥ; dvārā = upāya-mārga; Manu as pitā (ancestral progenitor) approached devas with dhiyaḥ (devout thoughts).", "ritual_interpretation": "Affirms that by ritual power and right means, the ancestors approached the gods; current sacrificer follows that same ‘gate’.", "theological_insight": "Divine access is structured: desire (vena) must be guided by kratu and dhī; tradition (Manu) is the validated pathway.", "etymology_highlights": "kratu as both ‘intention’ and ‘sacrificial efficacy’; dvāra as ‘means/door’—the functional threshold of approach." }
