In The Secret of the Veda, Sri Aurobindo showed that there is a deep, esoteric sense to the Vedic hymns that is the real sense of the hymns. As part of his review, Sri Aurobindo translated and commented on a number of Hymns to Indra. While there is a chapter devoted to Indra and the Ashwins, and 3 of the Selected Hymns deal wholly or in part with Indra, there is an entire section devoted to Hymns to Indra. The first of these is Mandala I, Sukta 5. (The Secret of the Veda, US edition, pp. 491-501) The English translation was provided by Sri Aurobindo. The recordings were made at Sri Aurobindo Ashram in 1973. Sanskrit recited by Sri Vinayak. English translation and excerpts from Sri Aurobindo's commentary recited by Santosh Krinsky
In The Secret of the Veda, Sri Aurobindo showed that there is a deep, esoteric sense to the Vedic hymns that is the real sense of the hymns. To illustrate the method of interpretation, Sri Aurobindo chose 13 hymns and provided translation and commentary under the heading 'Selected Hymns'. This is the thirteenth of these selected hymns, the Hymn to Soma, Lord of Delight and Immortality. There is also a brief conclusion to the series of Selected Hymns. (The Secret of the Veda, US edition, pp. 339-348) The English translation was provided by Sri Aurobindo. The recordings were made at Sri Aurobindo Ashram in 1973. Sanskrit recited by Sri Vinayak.
