Rig Veda 9.5.11: Mandala 9, Sukta 5, Mantra 11
Sukta 9.5
Rishi: Traditionally: Soma Pavamāna hymns are often attributed to seers of various families; for this isolated mantra the specific r̥ṣi is not provided in the input (requires cross-reference to RV 9.5 colophon).
Devata: Soma Pavamāna (with an invocation for the collective Devas—Vāyu, Bṛhaspati, Sūrya, Agni, Indra).
Chandas: Not supplied in the input; requires metrical verification against RV 9.5.11 (likely a Triṣṭubh/Jagati-type cadence common in Soma hymns).
