Offering
A curated, evidence-aware list from the frozen product graph.
- soma juice (soma)offeringThe pressed plant and the juice made from it, drunk by the gods and by the sacrificer; the substance, not the deity of the same name.1,169linked passages
- cattle (go)offeringCows and cattle, the principal wealth of the corpus and the object of the raid that several central myths retell.757linked passages
- oblation (havis)offeringWhat is poured or placed in the fire for the gods, considered as the offered material rather than as the rite.401linked passages
- clarified butter (ghṛta)offeringMelted butter, the commonest liquid oblation and a standing image for anything rich, streaming or nourishing.254linked passages
- food (anna)offeringFood as sustenance and as what the gods are given, distinct from the oblation offered in the fire.251linked passages
- horse (aśva)offeringThe horse as draught animal, racer and sacrificial victim.234linked passages
- milk (payas)offeringMilk, both the cow's and the figurative milk of clouds, plants and the earth.147linked passages
- honey (madhu)offeringHoney, and the honeyed quality attributed to soma, milk and speech alike.138linked passages
- priestly fee (dakṣiṇā)offeringThe fee paid to the officiants, treated in the hymns as itself a meritorious act.66linked passages
- livestock (paśu)offeringDomestic animals taken together, the standing measure of a household's substance.57linked passages
- fermented draught (parisrut)offeringThe draught that has flowed round, poured beside milk, ghee and honey in the sautramani: "payaḥ somaḥ parisrutā ghṛtaṃ madhu" (VS 21.30, VS 21.31), "somaṃ śukraṃ parisrutā sarasvatī" (VS 20.59). Eighteen passages, every one Yajurvedic and not one anywhere else in the corpus.18linked passages
- goat (aja)offeringThe goat: the victim led before the horse at the horse sacrifice, the animal cooked with five rice-dishes, and a head of ordinary livestock.17linked passages
- spirituous liquor (surā)offeringThe fermented liquor offered beside the soma in the sautramani: "surayā somaḥ suta āsuto madāya" (VS 19.5), "somasya śuṣmaḥ surayā sutasya" (VS 19.33). Griffith renders it "Wine". The bare stem `surā` is deliberately not an alias: at four characters it is below the sandhi floor, its 116 substring hits are 47% intrusions, and three of its six token hits are the dicing-and-drinking topos of AVS 6.70.1 and RV 7.86.6 rather than an offering.8linked passages

How this list was scoped1
`passage_count` counts DISTINCT passages reaching the object through the lexical, conceptual and ritual predicates this surface counts, and is the same figure the detail view reports. It is NULL, never 0, where no passage reaches it: the mention layer's measured recall is 0.8857, so a null is a lower bound and not an assertion that the corpus is silent.
