{ "prastava": "(typical) stobha prelude to set procedural tone", "udgitha": "yadī́ṃ gaṇásya raśanā́m ajī́gaḥ śúcir aṅkte śúci-bhir góbhir agníḥ", "pratihara": "(response) framing the transition into dakṣiṇā clause", "upadrava": "ā́d dakṣiṇā́ yujyate vājáyanty uttānā́m ū́rdhvo ádhayaj", "nidhana": "juhū́bhiḥ (cadence; often collectively sustained)", "structure_notes": "Semantic ‘steps’ map well to the five-part structure: prastāva establishes order; udgītha states activation/purification; upadrava carries empowerment and offering; nidhana seals with the implement term.", "singer_assignments": "Standard: Prastotṛ / Udgātṛ / Pratihartṛ / Udgātṛ / all" }
{ "gloss_summary": "Agni, when he sets the gaṇa’s ‘binding’ in motion, is anointed with pure ‘go’ (rays/bright substances); dakṣiṇā is joined to the sacrifice and brings vāja; he offers with ladles.", "ritual_interpretation": "Foregrounds implements and protocol: juhū as oblation ladles; dakṣiṇā as priestly fee integrated into yajña; ‘go’ read as rays or bright materials appropriate to Agni.", "theological_insight": "Purity and right exchange are not ancillary but constitutive of sacrificial power; Agni’s rise signifies successful execution.", "etymology_highlights": "raśanā—binding strap/order; vājayantī—‘making vāja’, strengthening; go—rays/bright substances in this context." }
