Pavamāna-sāman (generic; specific tune not stated in input)

{ "prastava": "Prelude likely sets a luminous tonal center; stobhas not specified.", "udgitha": "Main proclamation ‘tvaṃ hy āṅga … dyumattamaḥ’ expanded; dyumattamaḥ receives melodic crown.", "pratihara": "Response echoes the radiance claim, often tightening rhythm to affirm.", "upadrava": "Carries ‘amṛtatvāya ghoṣayan’ as an aspirational tail.", "nidhana": "Collective settling on the final cadence, leaving a ‘ringing’ after-silence.", "structure_notes": "This verse benefits from a slightly more ‘projected’ udgītha, as it explicitly references sounding (ghoṣa).", "singer_assignments": "Standard: Prastotṛ / Udgātṛ / Pratihartṛ; all at nidhana" }

{ "gloss_summary": "Soma’s ‘janimāni’ are its various divine productions/forms in the rite—pressings, streams, offerings; among these it is ‘most radiant’. It ‘sounds forth’ for amṛtatva, understood as the sacrificer’s longevity and heavenly state secured by Soma.", "ritual_interpretation": "The multiplicity of Soma’s ritual forms is affirmed; the chant itself is the ghoṣa that establishes the rite’s aim—amṛta-like reward.", "theological_insight": "Amṛtatva is approached through the sacrificial medium: Soma as deity and substance becomes the means of transcending ordinary mortality.", "etymology_highlights": "janimāni = janma-forms/productions; dyumattamaḥ = superlative of dyumat (radiant); amṛtatvāya = for immortality/undying state" }
