English:- O Soma, high is your renown, great your peace and pleasure, born and abiding in heaven, and the gift of your energy and vitality, the earth receives as the seed and food of life. (Rigved 9-61-10)

English:- O Soma, Spirit of Divinity, peace and glory of existence distilled in the essence for the soul's being, flow in the sweetest and most exhilarating streams of ecstasy, cleanse and sanctify us unto purity and constancy, and initiate us into the state of ananda, divine glory. (Rigved 9-1-1)
(Soma in the physical sense is an exhilarating drink, in the aesthetic sense it is ecstasy, in the psychic sense it is ananda, and in the spiritual sense it is elevation of the soul to the experience of divinity. It is the peace, purity and glory of life, any power physical, social or divine that leads to satyam (truth), shivam (goodness), and sundaram (beauty) of life, anything, power and person that gives us an experience of sacchidananda, the real, the intelligent and the blissful state of the life divine. In short, Soma is satyam, shivam and sundaram, the sat, the chit and the ananda of life. It is not restricted to a particular herb and a particular drink. The meaning of soma is open-ended on the positive side of life and living joy.)
