Vedic Reference

English

 Varaśikha is the name of a leader whose tribe is mentioned
in the Rigveda^1 as being defeated by Abhyāvartin Cāyamāna
1) vi. 27,  4. 5. Cf. Ludwig,  Transla-
tion of the Rigveda,  3,  156
 Hillebrandt, 
Vedische Mythologie,  1,  105
 Zimmer, 
Altindisches Leben,  133,  who thinks that
Varaśikha was the leader of the Tur-
vaśa-Vṛcīvants,  but this is conjectural, 
and not very probable. Cf. Pārthava.
In the Bṛhaddevatā,  v. 124 et seq.,  the
form of the name is Vāraśikha (‘de-
scendant of Varaśikha’),  occurring in
the plural only.
