General definition (in Hinduism)
: archive.org: Vedic index of Names and Subjects1) 笔补谤艣耻 (啶ぐ啷嵿ざ啷�) denotes 鈥榬ib鈥� in the Atharvaveda and later. Cf. 艢补谤墨谤补.
2) 笔补谤艣耻 (啶ぐ啷嵿ざ啷�) seems in some passages to denote a 鈥榮ickle鈥�, being apparently a variant of 笔补谤补艣耻.
3) 笔补谤艣耻 (啶ぐ啷嵿ざ啷�) in the Nirukta (iv. 6) is explained in one passage of the Rigveda as meaning the sides of a cistern (办奴辫补). But the sense of 鈥榬ibs鈥� is quite adequate there.
4) 笔补谤艣耻 (啶ぐ啷嵿ざ啷�) occurs in one passage in a D膩nastuti (鈥榩raise of gifts鈥�) in the Rigveda as the name of a man. It is not certain that he is identical with Tirindira, but the 艢腻峁卥丑腻测补苍补-艣谤补耻迟补-蝉奴迟谤补 mentions Tirindira P膩ra艣avya as the patron of Vatsa K膩峁噕a. In another passage occurring in the V峁涐梗膩kapi hymn, 笔补谤艣耻 M膩nav墨 occurs, apparently as a woman, daughter of Manu, but who is meant it is quite impossible to say.
