Sāyaṇa Commentary

{ "gloss_summary": "‘Garments’ are read as purity-investiture (often the filtering cloth/clarified appearance); camū is the Soma-vessel; devavīti is the sacrificial ‘winning’—successful bringing of deities to the rite; Soma is praised as purified, clear-seeing, and wakeful.", "ritual_interpretation": "Accompanies Soma’s appearance in vessels after filtration; emphasizes purity and readiness for offering and for attracting the gods.", "theological_insight": "Purified Soma becomes kavi—revelatory intelligence; clarity and wakefulness are divine qualities generated by the sacrament.", "etymology_highlights": "vicakṣaṇa ‘distinctly seeing’; devavīti ‘winning/obtaining of gods’; camū ‘bowl/vessel’." }
