{ "prastava": "(Typical) stobha-led prelude such as ‘o… hā u…’ to establish rāga-like center (exact stobha depends on gāna).", "udgitha": "Main text elongated on key devatā words: somaṃ… rājānam… varuṇam… agnim…", "pratihara": "Short responsorial catch on the cadence of each half-verse (school-dependent).", "upadrava": "Repetition/variation of the second hemistich with lengthened deity list.", "nidhana": "Closing sustained final (often on last word) to seal invocation.", "structure_notes": "Sarvadevatā items are commonly distributed so that each deity-name receives a melodic ‘seat’ (āsana) via prolongation.", "singer_assignments": "Prastotṛ begins; Udgātṛ carries udgītha/upadrava; Pratihartṛ answers; finale together." }
{ "gloss_summary": "anvārabhāmahe = anukrameṇa ārabhāmahe, saṅkalpa-pūrvakaṃ devatāḥ saṃgṛhṇīmaḥ; brahmāṇam interpreted as brahma-śabda-rūpa stotra or brahma-devatā; Soma is called rājā due to primacy.", "ritual_interpretation": "A deliberate ‘undertaking’ of the deities in order for yajña—ensuring no devatā-share is omitted.", "theological_insight": "Brahman (sacred speech) is itself a devatā-power that encompasses the rite; Soma’s kingship marks rasa as the unifier.", "etymology_highlights": "rājā (sovereign/primary); brahma as stotra-mantra; anv-ārabh (to take up sequentially)." }
