{ "gloss_summary": "Sāyaṇa takes saṃsthe as a communal/ritual ‘station’ where praise is voiced; prati śvasantam denotes confronting a forceful adversary/obstacle; Indra as vṛṣabha is the powerful supporter.", "ritual_interpretation": "Affirms the yajamāna’s protection and the rite’s capacity to face impediments through Indra-backed song.", "theological_insight": "Speech (bruvīmahi) is effective when aligned with divine power; community (saṃstha) is part of sacrificial efficacy.", "etymology_highlights": "yuj: ‘to yoke’; vṛṣabha: ‘bull’; saṃstha: ‘standing together/assembly’." }
