Aindra stotra: praise of Indra’s unrivaled might and Soma-exhilaration in support of victory and prosperity
गृणे तदिन्द्र ते शव उपमां देवतातये यद्धंसि वृत्रमोजसा शचीपते
gṛṇe tadindra te śava upamāṃ devatātaye yaddhaṃsi vṛtramojasā śacīpate
gṛ1ṇe ta1d i1ndra te1 śa1vaḥ | u1pamāṃ de1vatātaye | ya1d dhaṃsi vṛ1tram o1jasā | śa1cīpate
हे इंद्रा, मी तुझ्या शौर्य-बलाचे गान करतो—अतुल, तुझ्या देवत्वाच्या उत्कर्षासाठी; कारण, हे शचीपते, तू आपल्या ओजाने वृत्राचा वध करतोस.

{ "prastava": "(with stobha prelude) o…/hā… leading into ‘gṛṇe’", "udgitha": "Core text segment emphasizing ‘indra te śavaḥ…’", "pratihara": "Responsive return on the cadence of ‘devatātaye’/‘ojasā’ phrase", "upadrava": "Re-statement/extension around ‘yad dhaṃsi vṛtram…’", "nidhana": "Final settling on ‘śacīpate’ with communal cadence", "structure_notes": "In Kauthuma practice, archika verses are expanded by stobhas and vowel-lengthenings; the semantic ‘strike’ is placed on ‘haṃsi/vṛtram’.", "singer_assignments": "Prastotṛ: prastāva; Udgātṛ: udgītha+upadrava; Pratihartṛ: pratihāra; all three: nidhana." }
{ "gloss_summary": "Sāyaṇa reads ‘devatātaye’ as devatva-prakāśanārtham—meant to manifest/augment Indra’s divine status in the rite; ‘vṛtra’ as āvaraṇa-kartṛ (obstructor); ‘ojasā’ as balena (by force).", "ritual_interpretation": "Praise functions as a ritual instrument: by celebrating Indra’s might, the adhvaryu’s offerings are ‘supported’ and the deity is made present to accept Soma.", "theological_insight": "Divinity is not distant; it is ‘made luminous’ (prakāśa) through right sound and offering, and obstruction is the archetypal enemy of sacrificial fruition.", "etymology_highlights": "vṛtra ← √vṛ ‘to cover/obstruct’; devatātā as ‘deity-hood’/manifest divine status; ojas as concentrated strength." }
