Sukta 130
Rishi: Late compilation layer (AV 20 is predominantly Ṛgvedic material); specific r̥ṣi not securely assignable for this fragment in isolation.
Devata: Iḍā / Nourishment (functional devatā)
Chandas: Uncertain (fragmentary pāda; likely part of a larger metrical context)
《阿闼婆吠陀》20.130 为后期编纂、主要取材自《梨俱吠陀》的礼仪性组句，在阿闼婆体系中保存，用作祈求滋养、施与成功并除去祭仪—道德污秽（énas）的连接性反复句。其残存诗节在两端摆动：（1）召唤以丰饶为身的伊ḍā，使其作为具象的兴盛降临；（2）将不净与过失转化为可转移的供献（havís），并以诘问、诊断式的命令语去“定位”必须取得或必须中和之物。此颂的效力系于言语即仪式：以称名唤出滋养，把罪咎化作祭品，并强令其显露，从而使利益得以安置于施主/赞助者之处。

Frequently Asked Questions
Iḍā/Irā is the personified power of nourishment and right distribution—food, plenty, and the successful placing of benefit with the intended recipient.
It treats impurity or fault (énas) as transferable: by offering havís, the rite symbolically moves the taint out of the person/household and into the offering, where it is carried away by the ritual process.
That imperative functions as a diagnostic tool: it compels disclosure and helps ‘locate’ what is missing or obstructing—after which the nourishment-bestowal refrain can establish the desired gain.
