Sama Veda — Uttarārcika, Mantra 5
Viṣṇu’s cosmic stride (trivikrama) as the paradigm of world-order and protection, adapted to Sāman praise within Soma worship
तद्विप्रासो विपन्युवो जागृवांसः समिन्धते विष्णोर्यत्परमं पदम्
tadviprāso vipanyuvo jāgṛvāṃsaḥ samindhate viṣṇoryatparamaṃ padam
tád(1) viprā́so(2) vipányuvo(2) jā́gṛvāṃsaḥ(2) sám(2) indhate(2) viṣṇór(2) yát(2) paramáṃ(2) padám(2)
那境位，受灵感的、喜赞的、警醒的祭司以颂歌点燃，使之显现——那正是毗湿奴（Viṣṇu）至上的境位。

{ "gloss_summary": "Sāyaṇa explains that the vigilant priests, delighting in praise, ‘kindle’ or make manifest the supreme station of Viṣṇu through stuti (praise) and yajña-krama (ritual sequence).", "ritual_interpretation": "The mantra legitimizes the udgātṛ’s act: song is not ornament but a ritual instrument that reveals the deity’s highest locus, ensuring the rite’s success.", "theological_insight": "Viṣṇu’s ‘paramaṃ padam’ is the ultimate support—known through revelation and maintained by vigilant, continuous worship.", "etymology_highlights": "sam-indhate: ‘to kindle together/fully’ → ‘to cause to appear’; jāgṛvāṃsaḥ: ‘those who are awake’ → ritual attentiveness without lapse." }
