Śastra is the technical term¹ for the ‘recitation’ of the Hotṛ priest, as opposed to the Stotra of the Udgātṛ. The recitations at the morning offering of Soma are called the Ājya and Praüga; at the midday offering, the Marutvatīya and the Niṣkevalya; at the evening offering, the Vaiśvadeva and the Āgnimāruta.
