Mantra 10
Aindra praise seeking Indra’s manifest bounty and protective heavenly aid in the sacrifice
ऋचं साम यजामहे याभ्यां कर्माणि कृण्वते वि ते सदसि राजतो यज्ञं देवेषु वक्षतः
ṛcaṃ sāma yajāmahe yābhyāṃ karmāṇi kṛṇvate vi te sadasi rājato yajñaṃ deveṣu vakṣataḥ

Dengan Ṛc dan dengan Sāman kami menyembah; dengan kedua-duanya terlaksana segala karma (ritus). Bersinar di sadas, keduanya mengarak yajña maju menuju para dewa.

{ "prastava": "Stobha prelude framing the declaration ‘ṛcaṃ sāma…’; pedagogically kept clear to foreground words.", "udgitha": "Main proclamation: ‘ṛcaṃ sāma yajāmahe…’.", "pratihara": "Response emphasizing ‘yābhyāṃ karmāṇi kṛṇvate’.", "upadrava": "Expansion: ‘vi te sadasi rājato…’.", "nidhana": "Final carrying phrase ‘… deveṣu vakṣataḥ’ with collective sustain.", "structure_notes": "This verse naturally maps onto the five-part structure because it speaks of the very mechanism being enacted (song carrying sacrifice).", "singer_assignments": "Standard distribution; nidhana by all to embody ‘carrying together’." }
{ "gloss_summary": "Ṛc and Sāman are paired liturgical instruments—recited and sung forms—by which karmāṇi (yajña-operations) are effected; in the sadas they shine and convey the sacrifice to the gods.", "ritual_interpretation": "Validates the division of priestly labor: śastra (Hotṛ) and stotra (Udgātṛ) together function as conveyors of offering.", "theological_insight": "Sound-forms are not mere symbols; when correctly performed they are causal powers within yajña, linking human act and divine reception.", "etymology_highlights": "sadas as ‘seat/assembly’—the formal hall of ritual; vakṣataḥ from √vah ‘to carry’ indicating transport/vehicle function of mantra." }
