Sama Veda — Uttarārcika, Mantra 2
Indra’s primordial birth as Vṛtra-slayer and world-establisher
तत्ते यज्ञो अजायत तदर्क उत हस्कृतिः तद्विश्वमभिभूरसि यज्जातं यच्च जन्त्वम्
tatte yajño ajāyata tadarka uta haskṛtiḥ tadviśvamabhibhūrasi yajjātaṃ yacca jantvam
tatte1 yajño2 ajāyata2 tad2 arka2 uta2 haskṛtiḥ2 | tad2 viśvam2 abhibhūr2 asi2 yajjātaṃ2 yacca2 jantvam2
Từ đó tế lễ của Ngài được sinh ra; từ đó thánh ca cất lên, và từ đó tiếng hò reo hoan hỷ (haskṛti) cũng khởi. Vì thế Ngài là Đấng khuất phục tất cả—mọi điều đã sinh ra, và mọi loài đang sống.

{ "prastava": "Stobha prelude establishing a proclamatory tone", "udgitha": "Main exposition through ‘tatte yajño ajāyata…’", "pratihara": "Response reinforcing the triad (yajña/arka/haskṛti)", "upadrava": "After-song culminating in ‘tad viśvam abhibhūr asi’", "nidhana": "Collective closure on ‘yajjātaṃ yacca jantvam’ with broad settle", "structure_notes": "The triadic list is ideal for musical parallelism—similar melodic shapes repeated for yajña/arka/haskṛti.", "singer_assignments": "Standard udgātṛ group; nidhana often broadened to include all as a universal sweep (all born/all living)." }
{ "gloss_summary": "From that (Indra’s primordial power/act) arose yajña, arka, and haskṛti; hence Indra is abhibhū over all born and living.", "ritual_interpretation": "Indra’s primacy is tied to the emergence of rite and laudation—validating that the stoma is ‘his sphere’ and thus efficacious when directed to him.", "theological_insight": "Power and liturgy are inseparable: Indra’s lordship is expressed as the very generation of sacrificial order and praise.", "etymology_highlights": "abhibhū from abhi+√bhū ‘to overpower/prevail’; arka as hymn/praise; haskṛti as exultant acclamation (ritual shout)." }
