Āśāvaha^1: I, 3, 42 (Anukram.): according to the explanation of Nīlakaṇṭha, either a synonym of Vāyu (the wind), the tenth of the twelve sons (i.e. “representations, ” Nīl.) of Heaven (Dyaus) (= Māyā, Nīl.) and Vivasvat (i.e. Brahman, Nīl.), viz., the geniuses of the ten senses and Mind (manas) together with Mahya (B. Sahya, i.e. Manu, Nīl.), who are all manifestations of the one “Son of Heaven” (divaḥ putro), --or (more probably) a Vivasvat or form of the Sun (“Vivasvataḥ” being then an irregular nom. plur.
but B. has putrā instead of purā).
