Mantra 2
Aindra stuti: Indra as the collectively ‘fashioned’ and manifest power who conquers battles and grants sovereignty through soma-inspired praise
श्रत्ते दधामि प्रथमाय मन्यवे ऽहन्यद्दस्युं नर्यं विवेरपः उभे यत्वा रोदसी धावतामनु भ्यसात्ते शुष्मात्पृथिवी चिदद्रिवः

In thee I place my faith for thy foremost ardour: thou smotest the Dasyu, the foe of men; thou didst rend him. Both worlds followed in their course; through thy might even the earth, O bolt-armed, was made to tremble.

Aindra (generic/unspecified in input)
{ "prastava": "(stobha-led prelude, often ‘hā/ho/i’ in Aindra practice)", "udgitha": "śratte dadhāmi prathamāya manyave ...", "pratihara": "(response portion repeating/answering the udgītha close)", "upadrava": "... anu bhyasātte śuṣmāt pṛthivī cid adrivaḥ", "nidhana": "(short closing formula; often elongated final vowels in adrivaḥ)", "structure_notes": "Without the specific gāna text, the five parts are given in functional allocation; actual Kauthuma gāna would insert stobhas and repeat segments to fit melody.", "singer_assignments": "Prastotṛ: prastāva; Udgātṛ: udgītha+upadrava; Pratihartṛ: pratihāra; all three: nidhana (with chorus support)." }
{ "gloss_summary": "dasyu is the impious/ayajvan adversary; manyu is Indra’s battle-fury, also the force removing ritual obstruction; the trembling of earth is hyperbolic proof of Indra’s śuṣma.", "ritual_interpretation": "The stotra installs śraddhā so the deity’s obstacle-removing power becomes operative for the sacrifice; victory over dasyu parallels removal of impediments to Soma-offering.", "theological_insight": "Indra’s might is not merely martial but ṛta-protecting: it secures the ordered movement of both worlds; divine power manifests in response to correctly directed faith and praise.", "etymology_highlights": "manyu as ‘that which impels/agitates’ (battle-ardour); dasyu as non-sacrificer; śuṣma as concentrated strength/energy." }
