इन्द्राय सोमम ऋत्विज सुनोता च धावत । स्तोतु: यो वच :शृण वद हवम च मे ॥ अथर्व
We should see in this mantra some technical words .Like what is the
meaning of Ritviz .We see one who perform the deeds in right time is
called the ritviz.
See in Nature all kind of activities happen in right time.So they can be also the ritviz.
In our body the system like digestive system, respiratory
system,blood circulatory system reproductive system etc all perform
their activities in timely.Whenever the requirements or demands appear the activities take place.Like when our body need the food we feel the
hunger.Same way the organs of the body work.The food enters in the
stomach the digestive juice secretion starts.In same way whole system
working.Kidney ,liver, lungs, intestine, rectum etc. So they r also the
Ritvik.
Now Soma .One who can
produce the coolness for Agni or fire, can be said Soma.For example if
our fire of hunger get relief from the edible items then it is Soma.From
this Soma our stomach extracts the essence.This
is pure essence called Rasa ,further it is continue to purer and
purest.In this mantra says धावत ,meaning do clean and clean in process
till the end According to the Ayurveda the last element is in our
digestive system makes the Majjaa .Majjaa is ending purest state of
edible food,which gives the nourishment to our body.And also the vitality
to Indra the lower consciousness.
Mantra says, O Ritviz ! Hear the admirable our sanctus or the reflex , and my invoking.
We can understand when body organs all hail but it is not heard by
that soma. Even it gets the disease or may be damage Why because The Soul
(my invoking) is not involving in its calling or hail.Like we must
merge with that organ.
For example in one kind of Yoga when breathing is felt entering nose
, feeling as whole body becomes the nose.Our existence merges in that
call or hail .Then Soma certainly comes and Nourishes also our Soul with lower conscientiousness ;the jiva(Indra).
Indra in his lower form jiva while in upper level the Soul.Soul does
not depend upon the vitality , produced by foods.But its Soma comes
from higher realm and gets the energy for whole body system.
O Ritviz makes the essence for Indra that extract it self must be
cleaning and cleaning in process and our expression admiring you Hear My
invoking.
