ด้วยแรงหนุนอันทรงฤทธิ์ วีรบุรุษผู้เรืองรอง ปีกงาม ผู้มีที่นั่งดึกดำบรรพ์ (sanādanīḍa) ย่อมมา; สิ่งใดที่ท่านหยั่งรู้ สิ่งนั้นแลเป็นความจริง มิใช่เปล่าประโยชน์: ท่านคือผู้ชนะ ผู้มอบทรัพย์อันน่าปรารถนา.

{ "prastava": null, "udgitha": null, "pratihara": null, "upadrava": null, "nidhana": null, "structure_notes": "Without the specific gāna, only the standard fivefold sāman architecture can be indicated: prastāva introduces the melodic frame (often with stobha), udgītha carries the main text, pratihāra answers/turns, upadrava reasserts, nidhana seals with a shared cadence.", "singer_assignments": "Prastotṛ (prastāva) → Udgātṛ (udgītha, upadrava) → Pratihartṛ (pratihāra) → all singers (nidhana)." }
{ "gloss_summary": "Epithets are functional: ‘strength’ indicates capacity to make the rite succeed; what the deity ‘discerns’ becomes true; ‘not vain’ indicates the offering is not frustrated when the god is present; the deity is both conqueror and benefactor of desirable wealth.", "ritual_interpretation": "Presence of the deity guarantees amoghatva (non-failure) of the sacrifice and its phala (reward).", "theological_insight": "Divine cognition (ciketa) is infallible; therefore divine sanction makes the sacrificer’s aim satya (realized).", "etymology_highlights": "Notes on mogha (fruitless) vs amogha (unfailing efficacy); emphasis on dātṛ/jetṛ roles as paired functions of Indra." }
