Kaṇva Nārṣada, wandering for a long time without a firm standing, desired: "May I find a firm standing!" He saw this sāman. He praised with it. He approached the finale with "rantāyai". Indeed, he who does not find a firm standing is, as it were, restless. The night is, as it were, wavering, or it is rest. Thereupon he found a firm standing. This is a sāman of firm standing. Whoever knows thus finds a firm standing. And because Kaṇva Nārṣada saw it, it is called the Kāṇva. "Pressed for exhilarating Indra"—\[the verses\] have \[the word\] "exhilarating" (madvat). Exhilaration is sap. The night is, as it were, sucked out, as it were, squeezed dry. They do not press \[fresh soma\]. What sediment they leave over from the third pressing, with that they proceed in this \[night\]. In that these \[verses\] have \[the word\] "exhilarating", they thereby place sap in it. With this, indeed, they swell it. > — English (machine translation) (machine translation) - [Previous: 1.215](https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.jaiminiya.1.215) - [Next: 1.217](https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.jaiminiya.1.217) - [Up: 1](https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.jaiminiya.1) ## Translations (1) - [English (machine translation)](https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.jaiminiya~en-mt.1.216) — English, machine translation ## Linked texts (1) - [Altindische Grammatik](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.literature.wackernagel-1896.v3.c9.1100) — Jacob Wackernagel & Albert Debrunner, German --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.jaiminiya.1.216](https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.brahmana.jaiminiya.1.216) · Pramāṇa
