The late kaancheepuraM Paramaachaarya on
Somarasa
--------------------------------
(Excerpt from the book 'Hindu Dharma' (The Universal Way of Life) (Lectures by the Swamy in olden days, translated to English by Sri R.Gopalakrishnan, earlier Asst. Editor of 'The Illustrated Weekly of India - Published by Bharatiya Vidya Bhavan, Bombay)
...
There is another falsehood spread these days, that Brahmins performed the sOmayajNjas only as a pretext to drink sOmarasa (the essence of sOma plant). Those who propagate this lie add that drinking sOmarasa is akin to imbibing liquor or wine. As a matter of fact sOmarasa is not an intoxicating drink. There is a reference in vEdas to Indra killing his foe when when he was 'intoxicated' with sOmarasa. People who spread the above falsehoods have recourse to 'arthavaada'(1) and base their perverse views on this passage.
The principle on which the physiology of deities is based is superior to that of humans. That apart, to say that the priests drank bottle after bottle of sOmarasa or pot after pot is to betray gross ignorance of the VEdic dharma. The sOma plant is pounded and crushed in a small mortar called 'graha'. There are rules with regard to the quantity of essence to be offered to the gods. The small portion that remains after the oblation has been made, 'huta-SEsha', which is drunk drop by drop, does not add up to more than an ounce. No one has been knocked out by such drinking. They say that sOmarasa is not very palatable.
The preposterous suggestion is made that sOmarasa was the coffee of those times. There are vEdic mantras which speak about the joy aroused by drinking it. This has been misinterpreted. While coffee is injurious to man, sOmarasa cleanses it. It is absurd to equate the two. The sOma plant was available in plenty in ancient times. Now it is becoming more and more scarce : this indeed is keeping with the decline of vEdic dharma. In recent years, the Raaja of Kollengode (south of Palghat) made it a point to supply the sOma plant for the sOma sacrifice wherever it was held.'
----
(1) Things that are to be discarded belong to the category of 'arthavaada' or 'anuvaada'.
'arthavaada' - explanatory remark , by adducing historical (or story) instances in its support (the deeds done in the story need not be brought into observance)
'anuvaada' - repetition of things which we already know, to mark its connection with 'vidhi' (stricture)
(The word 'anuvaada' in this context should not be confused with the meaning 'translation' with which we are familiar these days.)
