Meaning of the Prayer Mantra:

 Like the sage Ushana, the poetic composition is told, explaining the
divine creation. The Soma juice, having great power and associated with brilliance,
gets to the vessels, making a roar like boar with its foot.

 

 Notes: 

1. bruvANaH - tell; vivakti - declares; mahivrataH - having great power;
shuchibandhuH - having a brilliant relative; pAvaka - pure; abhyEti - approaches;
rEbhan - resounding.

2. As the seers chant the praises, the Soma juice for the Yaga is poured
into the vessels. This hymnb hails that.
