Mantra 2
Soma Pavamāna’s self-purification and forward rush through the woollen filter, becoming an effective oblation that draws Indra and grants ‘svar’ (heaven/light).

{ "prastava": "Stobha prelude establishing the ‘flow’ motif; often a gentle onset to avoid harsh attack.", "udgitha": "Carries prá dhanvā… pári srava… with sustained vowels on soma/indo/srava.", "pratihara": "Echo-response stabilizing pitch after the streaming ascent.", "upadrava": "Reinforces ā́ bhara and svarvidam with slightly intensified tone.", "nidhana": "Collective closure, sealing the ‘brought’ vigor into the rite.", "structure_notes": "In performance, ‘pari srava’ is frequently treated with smooth melisma to sonically enact straining/flowing.", "singer_assignments": "Standard five-part sāman distribution among prastotṛ/udgātṛ/pratihartṛ/all." }
{ "gloss_summary": "Soma is commanded to flow forth and be strained through the pavitra for Indra; bring brilliant vigor and the heaven-winning capacity.", "ritual_interpretation": "‘pari srava’ is taken technically as filtration/straining; ‘ā bhara’ indicates presenting the empowered oblation in the rite.", "theological_insight": "Purification is not incidental but constitutive: only the refined Soma becomes fit to strengthen Indra and elevate the sacrificer.", "etymology_highlights": "pari-srava: ‘flow around/through’ → ritual filtration; dyumat: ‘possessing light/sky’; svar-vid: ‘winning/knowing heaven’." }
