In this सुक्त , इन्द्र is praised for being a generous protector and a slayer of enemies, likened to a cow providing milk. The hymns invite इन्द्र to partake in sacred rituals, offering Soma juice and sacrifices for wealth and prosperity. Devotees seek his favor to repel adversaries and celebrate his might in safeguarding and granting blessings to the worshippers. [rv-1-4-1 ] rv • Book 1
