(‘Man-impelling’) is the name of a king, a Pāriksita, famous towards the end of the Brāhmana period. He is mentioned in the Satapatha Brāhmana as owning horses which when wearied were refreshed with sweet drinks, and as a performer of the Aśvamedha, or horse sacrifice. His capital, according to a Gāthā quoted in the śatapatha and the Aitareya Brāhmanas, was Asandīvant. His brothers Ugrasena, Bhīmasena, and Srutasena are mentioned as having by the horse sacrifice purified themselves from sin. The priest who performed the sacrifice for him was Indrota Daivāpi Saunaka. On the other hand the Aitareya Brāhmana, which also mentions his Aśvamedha, names Tura Kāvaseya as his priest. It also contains an obscure tale stating that at one sacrifice of his he did not employ the Kaśyapas, but the Bhūtavīras, being, however, induced by the Asitamygas to have recourse to the Kaśyapas again. He was a Kuru prince; see Pariksit. The Gopatha Brāhmana tells an absurd tale about him, evidently as of an ancient hero.
Denotes in the Rigveda a rod or staff of reed used for measuring a field. In the Atharvaveda the sense of bamboo is found twice, the bamboo being specified in the second passage as ‘ of the spring ’(vāsantika); more particularly it denotes the shaft of an arrow, a sense often found in later Vedic texts.
Denotes in the later Samhitās and Brāhmanas a bundle of reeds, and in some cases such a bundle twisted into a rope, for the two ends of the Tejanī are mentioned.
Is regarded by Schrader as having in the Rigveda the specific sense of ‘ axe.’ But in all the passages the sense of the ‘ bolt ’ of the god is adequate.
