Sanskrit-English Dictionary

Dictionary reference list used at http://bhagavata.org to the file that was loaded from: sacred-texts.com and has been
extended with definitions of the Monier-Williams dictionary (indicated with an *=) and the ISKCON Vedabase
(marked*V) and (partly) adapted to the transliteration used at srimadbhagavatam.org (see also http://www.unikoeln.de/phil-fak/indologie/tamil/mwreport.html mwreport.html or the html-version).
Transliteration functions:
n with ~= J or n'; n with an accent is a G; A = aa or , I = ii or , U= uu or , T= th, z=s' (alphabetically in this list
positioned as sh), M=m/n (with dot), H=h (ha), N= n, 4= stressed in pronunciation, S (s with lower dot)=sh, R= ri (the
original list this list began with sometimes spells the s' or z as sh, thus creating confusion on the spelling of the s with a
above; but this is not so for words from the MW dictionary with a *= behind them). Apart from the transcription of
Devangar letters care has to be taken of accents, Udtta and Svarita, both represented by the digit 4. Furthermore in
MW entries the indication of vowel sandhi ("blending of short and long vowels'') by circumflex is represented here by
the number 7 if placed above a single vowel and by 9 if spanning two vowels. The (rare) combination of two separate
vowels in MW is represented by adding the number 0 to the second vowel.
See here for a list of the abreviations used.

ca* = 1 and, likewise, accordingly (introducing quotations) Mn. ix, 19 and 45 Dhrtas. Hit. iti
ca* = 2 ind. (fr. pronominal base 3. {i}), in this manner, thus (in its original signification {iti} refers to something that
has been said or thought, or lays stress on what precedes; in the Brhmanas it is often equivalent to `" as you know "',
reminding the hearer or reader of certain customs, conditions, &c. supposed to be known to him). In quotations of
every kind {iti} means that the preceding words are the very words which some person has or might have spoken, and
placed thus at the end of a speech it serves the purpose of inverted commas ({ity uktvA}, having so said; {iti kRtvA},
having so considered, having so decided). It may often have reference merely to what is passing in the mind e.g. {bAlo
'pi nA7vamantavyo manuSya iti bhUmipaH}, a king, though a child, is not to be despised, saying to one's self, `" he is a
mortal "', (Gr. 928.) In dram. {iti tathA karoti} means `" after these words he acts thus. "' Sometimes {iti} is used to
include under one head a number of separate objects aggregated together (e.g. {ijyA7dhyayanadAnAni tapaH satyaM
kSamA damaH} {alobha iti mArgo 'yam}, `" sacrificing, studying, liberality, penance, truth, patience, self-restraint,
absence of desire "', this course of conduct, &c.) {iti} is sometimes followed by {evam}, {iva}, or a demonstrative
pronoun pleonastically (e.g. {tAm brUyAd bhavatI7ty evam}, her he may call `" lady "', thus). {iti} may form an
adverbial compound with the name of an author (e.g. {iti-pANini}, thus according to Pnini). It may also express the
act of calling attention (lo! behold!) It may have some other significations e.g. something additional (as in {ityAdi}, et
caetera), order, arrangement specific or distinctive, and identity. It is used by native commentators after quoting a rule
to express `" according to such a rule "' (e.g. {anudAttaGita ity Atmanepadam bhavati}, according to the rule of Pnini i,
3, 12, the tmane-pada takes place). {kim iti} = {kim}, wherefore, why? (In the S'atapatha-brhmana {ti} occurs for
{iti}; cf. Prkriit {ti} and {tti}.)

%{eSa@kAlaH}, here i.e. now, is the time; %{etad}, this here i.e. this world here below); sometimes used to give
emphasis to the personal pronouns (e.g. %{eSo'ham}, I, this very person here) or with omission of those pronouns (e.g.
%{eSa@tvAM@svargaM@nayAmi}, I standing here will convey thee to heaven; %{etau@praviSTau@svaH}, we two
here have entered); as the subject of a sentence it agrees in gender and number with the predicate without reference to
the noun to be supplied (e.g. %{etad@eva@hi@me@dhanam}, for this [scil. cow] is my only wealth MBh.); but
sometimes the neuter sing. remains (e.g. %{etad@guruSu@vRttiH}, this is the custom among Gurus Mn. ii, 206);
%{etad} generally refers to what precedes, esp. when connected with %{idam}, the latter then referring to what follows

iD * = (fr. 1. %{iS}; connected with %{i4rA} q.v.; only in inst. gen. abl. sing., and acc. pl. %{iDA4} and %{iDa4s}; or,
according to the spelling of the R2igveda, %{iLA4} and %{iLa4s}), a refreshing draught, refreshment, libation offered to
the gods RV.; the flow of speech, the stream of sacred words and worship, prayer; (Sa1y.) the earth, food RV. VS.;
(%{iDas}, or %{iLas}) pl. the objects of devotion (a particular form of Agni addressed in the fourth verse of the A1pri1
hymn RV. i, 13) RV. iii, 4, 3; (erroneously also referred to in the Bra1hman2as &c. as if etymologically connected with
the words %{IDya}, %{IDita}, %{ILita}, `" the praiseworthy "', `" the praised "', which are used in other passages as the
designation of the same object of worship) VS. AitBr. S3Br. A1s3vS3r. &c.
id * = ind. Ved. (probably the neut. form of the pronom. base %{i} see 3. %{i}; a particle of affirmation) even, just,
only; indeed, assuredly (especially, in strengthening an antithesis, e.g. %{ya4thA@va4zanti@devA4s@ta4he74d@asat},
as the gods wish it, thus indeed it will be RV. viii, 28, 4; %{di4psanta@i4d@ripa4vo@nA74ha@debhuH}, the enemies
wishing indeed to hurt were in nowise able to hurt RV. i, 147, 3). %{id} is often added to words expressing excess or
exclusion (e.g. %{vizva@it}, every one indeed; %{zazvad@it}, constantly indeed; %{eka@it}, one only). At the
beginning of sentences it often adds emphasis to pronouns, prepositions, particles (e.g. %{tvam@it}, thou indeed;
%{yadi@it}, if indeed, &c.) %{id} occurs often in the R2ig-veda and Atharva-veda, seldom in the Bra1hman2as, and its
place is taken in classical Sanskr2it by %{eva} and other particles.
idaM = this* = 1 {aya4m}, {iya4m}, {ida4m} (fr. {id} Un. iv, 156; g. {sarvA7di} Pn. 1-1, 27 Vop.; a kind of neut. of the
pronom. base 3. {i} with {am} [cf. Lat. {is}, {ea}, {id}, and {idem}]; the regular forms are partly derived from the
pronom. base {a}; see Gr. 224; the Veda exhibits various irregular formations e.g. fr. pronom. base {a}, an inst. {enA4},
{ayA4} [used in general adverbially], and gen. loc. du. {ayo4s}, and perhaps also {avo4s}, in RV. vi, 67, 11; vii, 67, 4; x,
132, 5 [BRD.]; fr. the base {ima}, a gen. sing. {ima4sya}, only RV.; the RV. has in a few instances the irregular
accentuation {a4smai}, v, 39, 5, &c.; {a4sya}, iv, 15, 5, &c.; {A4bhis}, vi, 25, 2, &c.: the forms derived fr. {a} are used
enclitically if they take the place of the third personal pronoun, do not stand at the beginning of a verse or period, and
have no peculiar stress laid upon them), this, this here, referring to something near the speaker; known, present;
(opposed to {adas} e.g. {ayaM lokaH} or {idaM vizvam} or {idaM sarvam}, this earthly world, this universe; {ayam
agniH}, this fire which burns on the earth; but {asAv agniH}, that fire in the sky, i. e. the lightning: so also {idam} or
{iyam} alone sometimes signifies `" this earth "'; {ime smaH}, here we are.) {idam} often refers to something
immediately following, whereas {etad} points to what precedes (e.g. {zrutvai9tad idam UcuH}, having heard that they
said this). {idam} occurs connected with {yad}, {tad}, {etad}, {kim}, and a personal pronoun, partly to point out
anything more distinctly and emphatically, partly pleonastically (e.g. {tad idaM vAkyam}, this speech here following
[165, 3]; {so 'yaM vidUSakaH}, this Vidshaka here).
idam* = 2 ind. [Ved. and in a few instances in classical Sanskriit] here, to this place; now, even, just; there; with these
words RV. AV. S'Br. AitBr. ChUp.; in this manner R. ii, 53, 31 S'ak. (v.l. for {iti} in {kim iti joSam Asyate}, 202, 8).

ith * = cl. 1. P. %{eTati}, %{eTitum} (Dha1tup. ix, 31), to go; to go to or towards; (p. %{iTa4t} RV. x, 171, 1) to make
haste; to err [NBD.]
iti= like that* =1 f. {ityai4} (dat.) see {i} above; (for 2. {iti} see s. v.) \\ 2 ind. (fr. pronominal base 3. {i}), in this
manner, thus (in its original signification {iti} refers to something that has been said or thought, or lays stress on what
precedes; in the Brhmanas it is often equivalent to `" as you know "', reminding the hearer or reader of certain
customs, conditions, &c. supposed to be known to him). In quotations of every kind {iti} means that the preceding
words are the very words which some person has or might have spoken, and placed thus at the end of a speech it serves
the purpose of inverted commas ({ity uktvA}, having so said; {iti kRtvA}, having so considered, having so decided). It
may often have reference merely to what is passing in the mind e.g. {bAlo 'pi nA7vamantavyo manuSya iti bhUmipaH},
a king, though a child, is not to be despised, saying to one's self, `" he is a mortal "', (Gr. 928.) In dram. {iti tathA
karoti} means `" after these words he acts thus. "' Sometimes {iti} is used to include under one head a number of
separate objects aggregated together (e.g. {ijyA7dhyayanadAnAni tapaH satyaM kSamA damaH} {alobha iti mArgo
'yam}, `" sacrificing, studying, liberality, penance, truth, patience, self-restraint, absence of desire "', this course of
conduct, &c.) {iti} is sometimes followed by {evam}, {iva}, or a demonstrative pronoun pleonastically (e.g. {tAm
brUyAd bhavatI7ty evam}, her he may call `" lady "', thus). {iti} may form an adverbial compound with the name of an
author (e.g. {iti-pANini}, thus according to Pnini). It may also express the act of calling attention (lo! behold!) It may
have some other significations e.g. something additional (as in {ityAdi}, et caetera), order, arrangement specific or
distinctive, and identity. It is used by native commentators after quoting a rule to express `" according to such a rule "'
(e.g. {anudAttaGita ity Atmanepadam bhavati}, according to the rule of Pnini i, 3, 12, the tmane-pada takes place).
{kim iti} = {kim}, wherefore, why? (In the S'atapatha-brhmana {ti} occurs for {iti}; cf. Prkriit {ti} and {tti}.)
itihaasa = history
itihaasa(H) = history; epic
ittha *= n. in astron. = $ VarBr2S.
itthaa *= ind. Ved. thus; (often used in the R2ig-veda, and sometimes only to lay stress on a following word; therefore
by native etymologists [Nir.] considered as a particle of affirmation.) %{itthA} is often connected with words expressing
devotion to the gods &c. in the sense of thus, truly, really; especially with %{dhI} as an adjective. Hence %{itthA-dhI} =
such, i.e. true (%{satyA}) or real worship. Similarly, %{itthA-dhI4} mfn. so devout, so pious i.e. very devout;
performing such or true works [Sa1y.] RV. AV. Kat2hUp.
ityuta = thus it is said
ittham *= ind. (fr. %{id} q.v. Pa1n2. 5-3, 24), thus, in this manner RV. AV. TS. R. S3ak. &c.; [cf. Lat. {item}.]

In its declension {ka} follows the pronoun {tad} except in nom. acc. sing. neut., where {kim} has taken the place of
{kad} or {kat} in classical Sanskriit; but the old form {kad} is found in the Veda (see Gram. 227); [cf. Zd. {ka}, {ko7},

Sanskrit Dictionary

and the sentence lose its direct interrogative character (e.g. {kasya sa putro na jJAyate}, it is not known whose son he
is). {ka} with or without 1. {as} may express `" how is it possible that? "' `" what power have I, you, they, &c.? "' (e.g.
{ke mama dhanvino'nye}, what can the other archers do against me? {ke AvAm paritrAtum}, what power have we to
rescue you?) {ka} is often connected with a demonstrative pron. (e.g. {ko 'yam AyAti}, who comes here?) or with the
potential (e.g. {ko hariM nindet}, who will blame Hari?) {ka} is sometimes repeated (e.g. {kaH ko 'tra}, who is there?
{kAn kAn}, whom? whom? i.e. which of them? cf. Gram. 54), and the repetition is often due to a kind of attraction (e.g.
{keSAM kiM zAstram adhyayanIyam}, which book is to be read by whom? Gram. 836. {a}). When {kim} is connected
with the inst. c. of a noun or with the indecl. participle it may express `" what is gained by doing so, &c.? "' (=
{ko'rthas}) [240,3]; (e.g. {kiM vilambena}, what is gained by delay? {kim bahunA}, what is the use of more words?
{dhanena kiM yo na dadAti}, what is the use of wealth to him who does not give? with inst. and gen., {nIrujaH kim
auSadhaiH}, what is the use of medicine to the healthy?) {ka} is often followed by the particles {iva}, {u}, {nAma},
{nu}, {vA}, {svid}, some of which serve merely to generalize the interrogation (e.g. {kim iva etad}, what can this be? {ka
u zravat}, who can possibly hear? {ko nAma jAnAti}, who indeed knows? {ko nv ayam}, who, pray, is this? {kiM nu
kAryam}, what is to be done? {ko vA devAd anyaH}, who possibly other than a god? {kasya svid hRdayaM nA7sti}, of
what person is there no heart?) {ka} is occasionally used alone as an indefinite pronoun, especially in negative
sentences (e.g. {na kasya ko vallabhaH}, no one is a favourite of any one; {nA7nyo jAnAti kaH}, no one else knows;
{kathaM sa ghAtayati kam}, how does he kill any one?) Generally, however, {ka} is only made indefinite when
connected with the particles {ca}, {cana4}, {cid}, {vA}, and {a4pi}, in which case {ka} may sometimes be preceded by
the relative {ya} (e.g. {ye ke ca}, any persons whatsoever; {yasyai kasyai ca devatAyai}, to any deity whatsoever; {yAni
kAni ca mitrANi}, any friends whatsoever; {yat kiMca}, whatever). The particle {cana}, being composed of {ca} and
{na}, properly gives a negative force to the pronoun (e.g. {yasmAd indrAd Rte kiMcana}, without which Indra there is
nothing), but the negative sense is generally dropped (e.g. {kazcana}, any one; {na kazcana}, no one), and a relative is
sometimes connected with it (e.g. {yat kiMcana}, anything whatsoever). Examples of {cid} with the interrogative are
common; {vA} and {api} are not so common, but the latter is often found in classical Sanskriit (e.g. {kazcid}, any one;
{kecid}, some; {na kazcid}, no one; {na kiMcid api}, nothing whatsoever; {yaH kazcid}, any one whatsoever; {kecit} {kecit}, some - others; {yasmin kasmin vA deze}, in any country whatsoever; {na ko 'pi}, no one; {na kimapi}, nothing
whatever). {ka} may sometimes be used, like 2. {kad}, at the beginning of a compound. see {ka-pUya}, &c.

in this sense compared with Amen; it is placed at the commencement of most Hindu1 works, and as a sacred
exclamation may be uttered [but not so as to be heard by ears profane] at the beginning and end of a reading of the
Vedas or previously to any prayer; it is also regarded as a particle of auspicious salutation [Hail!]; %{om} appears first
in the Upanishads as a mystic monosyllable, and is there set forth as the object of profound religious meditation, the
highest spiritual efficacy being attributed not only to the whole word but also to the three sounds %{a}, %{u}, %{m}, of
which it consists; in later times %{om} is the mystic name for the Hindu1 triad, and represents the union of the three
gods, viz. a (Vishn2u), %{u} (S3iva), %{m} (Brahma1); it may also be typical of the three Vedas; %{om} is usually called
%{praNava}, more rarely %{akSara}, or %{ekAkSara}, and only in later times %{oMkAra}) VS. S3Br. ChUp. &c.;

%{svIkAre}, %{anumatau}, %{apA7kRtau}, %{asvIkAre}, %{maGgale}, %{zubhe}, %{jJeye}, %{brahmaNi}; with

piitha (Yoga encyclopedia) * ("seat") is sometimes used synonymously for *sana. The term can also refer to a sacred
site (*trtha), such as a temple, or a special locus of spiritual energy (*shakti) within the *body, corresponding to a
*cakra. For instance, the *Laghu-Yoga-Vsishtha (VI.2.100f.) speaks of the thirty-six trthas in the body in which *God
should be worshiped.\\Moreover, in one of its several classification systems, *Shaiva *Tantrism employs the term ptha
to denote a certain type of scripture (see *gama), analogous to the categories of *mnya and *srota. There are four
such pthas, namely vidy-, mantra-, mudr-, and mandala-ptha. While the scriptures of a particular class deal chiefly
with the subject matter indicated by the name of their category (such as *mantras or *mandalas), each scripture covers
all the important *Tantric principles.

represented as a destroying deity, whose terrible shafts bring death or disease on men and cattle, he has also the epithet
{ziva}, `" benevolent "' or `" auspicious "', and is even supposed to possess healing powers from his chasing away
vapours and purifying the atmosphere; in the later mythology the word {ziva}, which does not occur as a {name} in the
Veda, was employed, first as an euphemistic epithet and then as a real name for Rudra, who lost his special connection
with storms and developed into a form of the disintegrating and reintegrating principle; while a new class of beings,
described as eleven [or thirty-three] in number, though still called Rudras, took the place of the original Rudras or
Maruts: in VP. i, 7, Rudra is said to have sprung from Brahm's forehead, and to have afterwards separated himself into
a figure half male and half female, the former portion separating again into the 11 Rudras, hence these later Rudras are
sometimes regarded as inferior manifestations of S'iva, and most of their names, which are variously given in the
different Purnas, are also names of S'iva [883, 2]; those of the VyuP. are Ajai9kapad, Ahir-budhnya, Hara, Nirriita,
s'vara, Bhuvana, Angraka, Ardha-ketu, Mriityu, Sarpa, Kaplin; accord. to others the Rudras are represented as

saamaveda m. `" Veda of chants "'N. of one of the three principal Vedas (see %{veda}; it contains a number of verses
or stanzas nearly all of which [except about 78] occur in the R2ig-veda and which, modified in various ways, are
chanted, mostly, by the Udga1tr2i priests at Soma sacrifices; the Sam2hita1 of the Sa1ma-veda consists of two parts; the
first, called Arcika [or Purviccika or Chando-grantha], contains 585 verses disjoined from their proper sequence in the
R2ig-veda and arranged in 59 Das3atis or decades, which again are subdivided into Prapa1t2hakas and Ardhaprapa1t2hakas; the second, called Uttara7rcika or Uttara1-grantha, contains 1225 verses, also chiefly from the R2iksam2hita1, but less disjointed than in the first part, and arranged in nine Prapa1hakas with Ardha-prapa1t2hakas,
mostly, however, grouped in triplets; the directions for the formation of Sa1mans or chants out of these verses are
carefully laid down in the Ga1nas or manuals for chanting, two of which, viz. the Geya-ga1na and A1ran2ya-g, are a
directory for the A1rcika portion, and two, viz. U1ha-gga1na and U1hya-ga1na, for the Uttara7rcika1; in Mn. i, 23 the
Sa1ma-veda is described as drawn forth from the sun; in iv, 124 it is described as having a special reference to the
Pitr2is or deceased ancestors, and its sound is therefore said to possess a kind of impurity, whereas the R2ig-veda has
the gods for his objects and the Yajurveda men; the Sa1ma-veda is said to possess 8 Bra1hman2as [see %{brAhmaNa}]

Manas; the twenty-fifth being Purusha or Spirit [sometimes called Soul] which is neither a Producer nor Production
[see {vikAra}], but wholly distinct from the twenty-four other Tattvas. and is multitudinous, each separate Purusha by
its union with Prakriiti causing a separate creation out of Prakriiti, the object of the philosophy being to effect the final
liberation of the Purusha or Spirit from the fetters caused by that creation; the Yoga [q.v.] branch of the Saqikhya
recognizes a Supreme Spirit dominating each separate Purusha; the Tantras identify Prakriiti with the wives of the
gods, esp. with the wife of S'iva; the oldest systematic exposition of the SSnkhya seems to have been by an author

ashes by a glance from his central eye, that deity having attempted to inflame him with passion for Prvat whilst he was
engaged in severe penance; in the exercise of his function of Universal Destroyer he is fabled to have burnt up the
Universe and all the gods, including Brahm and Vishnu, by a similar scorching glance, and to have rubbed the
resulting ashes upon his body, whence the use of ashes in his worship, while the use of the Rudra7ksha berries
originated, it is said, from the legend that S'iva, on his way to destroy the three cities, called Tri-pura, let fall some tears
of rage which became converted into these beads: his residence or heaven is Kailsa, one of the loftiest northern peaks
of the Hima7laya; he has strictly no incarnations like those of Vishnu, though Vra-bhadra and the eight Bhairavas and
Khando-b &c. [RTL. 266] are sometimes regarded as forms of him; he is especially worshipped at Benares and has
even more names than Vishnu, one thousand and eight being specified in the 69th chapter of the S'iva-Purna and in
the 17th chapter of the Anus'sana-parvan of the Maha-bhrata, some of the most common being Mah-deva, S'ambhu,

the `" cow of plenty "', called Nandin, offspring of Surabhi, which by gransing all desires made him, as his name
implies, master of every {vasu} or desirable object; he was the typical representative of Brhmanical rank, and the
legends of his conflict with Vis'v-mitra, who raised himself from the kingly or Kshatriya to the Brhmanical class, were
probably founded on the actual struggles which took place between the Brhmans and Kshatriyas; a great many hymns
of the RV. are ascribed to these two great rivals; those of the seventh Mandala, besides some others, being attributed to
Vasishthha, while those of the third Mandala are assigned to Vis'v-mitra; in one of Vasishtha's hymns he is represented
as king Su-ds "' family priest, an office to which Vis'v-mitra also aspired; in another hymn Vasishthha claims to have
been inspired by Varuna, and in another [RV. vii, 33, 11] he is called the son of the Apsaras Urvas' by Mitra and
Varuna, whence his patronymic Maitrvaruni [930,3]; in Manu i, 35, he is enumerated among the ten Praj-patis or
Patriarchs produced by Manu Svyambhuva for the peopling of the universe; in the MBh. he is mentioned as the family
priest of the solar race or family of Ikshvku and Rma-candra, and in the Purnas as one of the arrangers of the Vedas

veda * =1 m. (fr. 1. {vid} q.v.) knowledge, true or sacred knowledge or lore, knowledge of ritual RV. AitBr.; N. of certain
celebrated works which constitute the basis of the first period of the Hind religion (these works were primarily three,
viz. 1. the Riig-veda, 2. the Yajur-veda [of which there are, however, two divisions see {taittirIya-saMhitA},
{vAjasaneyi-saMhitA}], 3. the Sma-veda [1015,2]; these three works are sometimes called collectively {trayI}, `" the
triple Vidy "' or `" threefold knowledge "', but the Riig-veda is really the only original work of the three, and much the
most ancient [the oldest of its hymns being assigned by some who rely on certain astronomical calculations to a period
between 4000 and 2500 B.C., before the settlement of the ryans in India; and by others who adopt a different
reckoning to a period between 1400 and 1000 B.C., when the ryans had settled down in the Panjb]; subsequently a
fourth Veda was added, called the Atharva-veda, which was probably not completely accepted till after Manu, as his
law-book often speaks of the three Vedas-calling them {trayam brahma sanAtanam}, `" the triple eternal Veda "', but
only once [xi, 33] mentions the revelation made to Atharvan and Angiras, without, however, calling it by the later name
of Atharva-veda; each of the four Vedas has two distinct parts, viz. 1. Mantra, i.e. words of prayer and adoration often
addressed either to fire or to some form of the sun or to some form of the air, sky, wind &c., and praying for health,
wealth, long life, cattle, offspring, victory, and even forgiveness of sins, and 2. Brhmana, consisting of Vidhi and Arthavda, i. e. directions for the detail of the ceremonies at which the Mantras were to be used and explanations of the
legends &c. connected with the Mantras [see {brAhmaNa}, {vidhi}], both these portions being termed {zruti},
revelation orally communicated by the Deity, and heard but not composed or written down by men [cf. I. W. 24 &c.],
although it is certain that both Mantras and Brhmanas were compositions spread over a considerable period, much of
the latter being comparatively modern; as the Vedas are properly three, so the Mantras are properly of three forms, 1.
Riic, which are verses of praise in metre, and intended for loud recitation; 2. Yajus, which are in prose, and intended
for recitation in a lower tone at sacrifices; 3. Sman, which are in metre, and intended for chanting at the Soma or
Moon-plant ceremonies, the Mantras of the fourth or Atharva-veda having no special name; but it must be borne in

mind that the Yajur and Sma-veda hymns, especially the latter, besides their own Mantras, borrow largely from the
Riig-veda; the Yajur-veda and Sma-veda being in fact not so much collections of prayers and hymns as special prayerand hymn-books intended as manuals for the Adhvaryu and Udgtrii priests respectively [see {yajur-veda}, {sAmaveda}]; the Atharva-veda, on the other hand, is, like the Riig-veda, a real collection of original hymns mixed up with
incantations, borrowing little from the Riig and having no direct relation to sacrifices, but supposed by mere recitation
to produce long life, to cure diseases, to effect the ruin of enemies &c.; each of the four Vedas seems to have passed
through numerous S'khs or schools, giving rise to various recensions of the text, though the Riig-veda is only
preserved in the S'kala recension, while a second recension, that of the Bhshkalas, is only known by name; a tradition
makes Vysa the compiler and arranger of the Vedas in their present form: they each have an Index or Anukraman
[q.v.], the principal work of this kind being the general Index or Sarva7nukraman [q.v.]; out of the Brhmana portion
of the Veda grew two other departments of Vedic literature, sometimes included under the general name Veda, viz. the
strings of aphoristic rules, called Stras [q.v.], and the mystical treatises on the nature of God and the relation of soul
and matter, called Upanishad [q.v.], which were appended to the ranyakas [q.v.], and became the real Veda of thinking
Hinds, leading to the nas or systems of philosophy; in the later literature the name of `" fifth Veda "' is accorded to the
Itihsas or legendary epic poems and to the Purnas, and certain secondary Vedas or Upa-vedas [q.v.] are enumerated;
the Veda7ngas or works serving as limbs [for preserving the integrity] of the Veda are explained under {vedA7Gga}
below: the only other works included under the head of Veda being the Paris'ishthas, which supply rules for the ritual
omitted in the Stras; in the Briihad-ranyaka Upanishad the Vedas are represented as the breathings of Brahm, while

{vedA7nta-ga}) Tr. MBh.; N. of the second and most important part of the Mmns or third of the three great
divisions of Hind philosophy (called Veda7nta either as teaching the ultimate scope of the Veda or simply as explained
in the Upanishads which come at the end of the Veda; this system, although belonging to the Mmns [q.v.] and
sometimes called Uttara-mmns, `" examination of the later portion or {jJAna-kANDa} [q.v.] of the Veda "', is really
the one sole orthodox exponent of the pantheistic creed of the Hinds of the present day - a creed which underlies all
the polytheism and multiform mythology of the people; its chief doctrine [as expounded by S'ankara] is that of Advaita
i.e. that nothing really exists but the One Self or Soul of the Universe called Brahman [neut.] or Parama7tman, and that
the Jva7tman or individual human soul and indeed all the phenomena of nature are really identical with the
Parama7tman, and that their existence is only the result of Ajna [otherwise called Avidy] or an assumed ignorance
on the part of that one universal Soul which is described as both Creator and Creation; Actor and Act; Existence,
Knowledge and Joy, and as devoid of the three qualities [see {guNa}]; the liberation of the human soul, its deliverance
from transmigrations, and re-union with the Parama7tman, with which it is really identified, is only to be effected by a
removal of that ignorance through a proper understanding of the Veda7nta; this system is also called Brahma-mmns
and S'rrakammns, `" inquiring into Spirit or embodied Spirit "'; the founder of the school is said to have been
Vysa, also called Bdaryana, and its most eminent teacher was S'ankara7crya) Up. MBh. &c.; ({As}) m. pl. the
