{ "prastava": "Stobha prelude setting the ‘sweet’ tone; exact stobhas depend on gāna.", "udgitha": "Main text with emphasis on the twin superlatives and the imperative ‘pavasva’.", "pratihara": "Answering phrase often echoing ‘pavasva soma’ or ‘dhārayā’.", "upadrava": "Extension stressing offering-purpose ‘indrāya pātave’.", "nidhana": "Final settling on ‘sutaḥ’ (pressed, ready) with collective cadence.", "structure_notes": "Gāyatrī’s brevity is compensated by repetition and stobha-padding to realize five-part sāman architecture.", "singer_assignments": "Prastotṛ: prastāva; Udgātṛ: udgītha+upadrava; Pratihartṛ: pratihāra; all: nidhana." }
{ "gloss_summary": "Sāyaṇa: ‘pavasva’ = pavitreṇa śuddho bhava (become purified through the filter); ‘dhārā’ = continuous outflow at pressing; ‘indrāya pātave’ fixes the recipient orientation of the offering.", "ritual_interpretation": "Directs the pressed Soma through purification and toward Indra’s drink-offering (graha), ensuring correct liturgical targeting.", "theological_insight": "Purity and potency are not opposed: the sweetest and most exhilarating Soma is precisely that which is well purified and properly offered.", "etymology_highlights": "svādiṣṭha (superlative of svādu), madiṣṭha (superlative from mad ‘exhilarate’), pavasva (√pū/pav ‘purify’), dhārā (flow)." }
