For example, what do you suppose MMY would have to say about Vedic passages like this?

----------------------------

 

9.034.03 They press the crushed Soma as it pours forth its juice between the effusing stones, they milk out its juice by their acts.
9.034.04 The exhilarating Soma is to be cleansed (for the sacrifice) of Trita, and for the drinking of Indra; the green-tinted (juice) is mixed with the ingredients. [i.e., mixed with curds and milk].
9.034.05 The son fof Pr.s'ni milk this Soma at the place of sacrifice, the most beautiful and grateful oblation (to the gods).

Subject: New Vedic Translation?

 

I’ve been reading a Vedic translation here:

 

http://www.hindunet.org/saraswati/rigveda/rvbook9.htm

 

but am having a hard time navigating the site to find out exactly what is being translated and who is the translator (or if it’s recent). Can anyone help in that regard? Also I would be interesting in opinions of the quality/accuracy/etc.

 

We might even begin debating the real nature of that pesky little thing called Soma that would seem to be central to the core of the vedas.
