Mantra 12
Soma Pavamāna’s self-purification and forward rush through the woollen filter, becoming an effective oblation that draws Indra and grants ‘svar’ (heaven/light).
परि कोशं मधुश्चुतं सोमः पुनानो अर्षति अभि वाणीरृषीणां सप्ता नूषत
pari kośaṃ madhuścutaṃ somaḥ punāno arṣati abhi vāṇīrṛṣīṇāṃ saptā nūṣata
pari kośaṃ madhuścutaṃ somaḥ punānaḥ arṣati abhi vāṇīr ṛṣīṇāṃ sapta3 nūṣata
Soma, being purified, flows around the honey-dropping vessel; unto the voices of the seers—sevenfold—he goes, as they have sounded forth (their praise).
