Soma, a key concept in the Vedic literature has a number of connotations, sometime based on analogies, as one may discern in the 9th book of the Rigveda and in the Samaveda. Soma is the Supreme Lord, vehicle of immortality, drop of life, supreme medicine and the elixir of gods. It is also viewed in the sense of friend, fame, ecstasy, affluence, etc. Soma is identified with all the deities with Agni, Apas, Indra, Brihaspati, Pushan, Aditi, Rudra, Varuna, Prajapati, et al. Soma is moon in the cosmic creation, and is present in all herbs. As a plant par excellence classified into 24 species, it grows on the Mujavat, Arbuda, Sahya, Mahendra, the Himâlaya and other mountains. For the purpose of juice (rasa) in sacrificial rites, it is pounded with stones or in a mortar, and then cleaned and processed. As an oblation (havih) in yajña it goes to Indra who in the metaphysical sense, is the resplendent Self, 'the soul who drinks Soma' shooting forth from the anandamaya and vijnanmaya sheaths of the subtle body. The ambrosia of Soma is fermented and distilled in the inner consciousness of one's self. Says the Samaveda
