The descriptive epithets form a responsive middle. The ‘seen’ spreading sun is an after-song expansion culminating in the stable nidhana on ‘acyutam’.", "singer_assignments": "Prastotṛ opens; Udgātṛ sustains the luminous thesis; Pratihartṛ answers with epithets; Udgātṛ paints the solar spread; all seal the unshaken strength." }
{ "gloss_summary": "The praised power is the best and highest light; called great, all-conquering, wealth-winning, universally resplendent; ‘sūrya’ language expresses supreme brilliance; it spreads wide to be seen with unshaken strength.", "ritual_interpretation": "‘Dhanajit’ is read as concrete sacrificial fruit; the luminous imagery signals successful manifestation of the deity’s presence in the rite.", "theological_insight": "The deity’s supremacy is expressed as light: not merely physical, but the visible sign of victorious efficacy and stable ojas.", "etymology_highlights": "acyuta: ‘not fallen’ → unwavering; jyotiṣām jyotiḥ: superlative construction emphasizing source-luminosity." }
