Mantra 3
Soma Pavamāna as the purified, radiant power flowing through the filter into the ritual seat
स वीरो दक्षसाधनो वि यस्तस्तम्भ रोदसी हरिः पवित्रे अव्यत वेधा न योनिमासदम्
sa vīro dakṣasādhano vi yastastambha rodasī hariḥ pavitre avyata vedhā na yonimāsadam
sá vīró dákṣa-sā́dhano ví yás tastámbha rodasī́ | hárīḥ pavítre ávyata | vedhā́ ná yónim ā́sadam (1/2/3)
സ വീരഃ ദക്ഷസാധനഃ—ശക്തി സിദ്ധിപ്പിക്കുന്ന വീരൻ; യഃ ഹരിഃ (സോമ) രോദസീ എന്ന രണ്ടു ലോകങ്ങളെ താങ്ങി നിർത്തുന്നു. ഹരിഃ പവിത്രത്തിൽ ചാലിക്കപ്പെടുന്നു; വിധാതാവുപോലെ ജ്ഞാനിയായ ക്രമീകരകനായി യോനിയിൽ (പാത്രത്തിൽ) ഇരിക്കുന്നു.
saḥ | vīraḥ | dakṣa-sādhanaḥ | vi | yaḥ | tastambha | rodasī | hariḥ | pavitre | avyata | vedhāḥ | na | yonim | āsadam
Pavamāna Sāman (generic; specific tune not stated in input)
{ "prastava": "Opening stobhas to establish tonal center and ‘lift’.", "udgitha": "Main delivery of cosmic-support claim and filtration statement.", "pratihara": "Answering cadence reinforcing avyata/āsadam formula.", "upadrava": "Reaffirmation of wise seating (vedhā na…).", "nidhana": "Collective grounding on final cadence.", "structure_notes": "This verse benefits from clear articulation of the cosmological pivot (rodasī) and the ritual-technical pivot (pavitre avyata).", "singer_assignments": "Standard five-part distribution among prastotṛ/udgātṛ/pratihartṛ/all." }
{ "gloss_summary": "Soma is praised as powerful (vīra, dakṣasādhana) and as upholding the worlds through sacrificial potency. pavitre is the filtering apparatus; vedhā is interpreted as the wise ordainer; yoni is the ritual seat/ādhāra where Soma is placed.", "ritual_interpretation": "Connects the technical act of filtration to cosmic consequence: by yajña (with Soma) the worlds are ‘upheld’.", "theological_insight": "Yajña is cosmic maintenance; Soma’s purification is simultaneously ethical/ontic purification—order is strengthened by refined offering and refined sound.", "etymology_highlights": "dakṣa as ‘skill/power’ (yajña-competence); vedhā from √vidh ‘to arrange/ordain’; rodasī as the dual world-pair." }
