Mantra 3
Soma Pavamāna’s self-purification and enthronement in ṛta through the waters and the filter (pavitra), yielding wealth and ritual power
आ सोम स्वानो अद्रिभिस्तिरो वाराण्यव्यया जनो न पुरि चम्वोर्विशद्धरिः सदो वनेषु दध्रिषे
ā soma svāno adribhistiro vārāṇyavyayā jano na puri camvorviśaddhariḥ sado vaneṣu dadhriṣe

Datanglah, Soma, bergema di bawah batu-batu pemerah (adri); melintasi penapis yang tidak pernah gagal; memasuki cawan-cawan (camū), berkilau cerah; engkau ditahan di Sadas, dalam bejana-bejana kayu.

Pavamāna (generic; specific Sāman name not determinable from input alone)
{ "prastava": "(Often a stobha prelude setting ‘ā’ as an extended call.)", "udgitha": "ā soma svāno adribhis tiro vārāṇy avyayā…", "pratihara": "(Answering phrase may echo svānaḥ/adribhiḥ to emphasize resounding.)", "upadrava": "…camvor viśad hariḥ…", "nidhana": "…sado vaneṣu dadhriṣe", "structure_notes": "Natural segmentation aligns with sāman structure: invocation + sound (udgītha), filtration (pratihāra/upadrava), seating (nidhana).", "singer_assignments": "Standard five-part distribution; nidhana often collective to ‘seat’ Soma sonically in the Sadas." }
{ "gloss_summary": "vārāṇi are filtering implements (pavitra/strainers); camū are Soma cups; sadas is the priestly hall where stotras are sung; vaneṣu are wooden utensils used in Soma service. Soma ‘resounds’ under stones and enters the cups bright in hue.", "ritual_interpretation": "Maps onto actual handling: pressing, filtering, filling cups, placing/holding within Sadas for liturgical singing and offering.", "theological_insight": "Soma’s divinity is manifest as ordered movement into the ritual heart-space; sound and substance together establish presence.", "etymology_highlights": "svāna from √svan (to sound); pavitra implied in vārāṇi; camū as receptacle; sadas from √sad (to sit)—place of seating/settling." }
