这首简短的《苏摩·自净》赞歌催促苏摩(因杜)穿过滤器自我澄净,奔流而出,成为令人陶醉、启发洞见的喜悦之饮,以召唤诸神。诗句强调苏摩越过滤网向前激涌,尤为因陀罗所饮;由此,随祭者的颂唱而来的是视野的扩展与英雄般力量的增长。

Frequently Asked Questions

The hymn praises Soma as Pavamāna (the self-purifying Soma/Indu) as he flows through the filter; Indra is highlighted as the chief one who drinks Soma.

Pavamāna means “purifying” or “being purified,” referring to Soma as he is strained through the pavitra in the Soma ritual to become fit for offering and divine drinking.

It asks Soma to bring ecstatic inspiration and, when drunk, wide-seeing clarity, and to grant su-vīrya—strong heroic power—into the worshippers’ hymn and life.
