Vedic Reference
English
Ā-sandī. This is a generic term for a seat of some sort,
occurring frequently in the later Saṃhitās^1 and Brāhmaṇas.^2
but not in the Rigveda. In the Atharvaveda^3 the settle brought
for the Vrātya is described at length. It had two feet, lengths
wise and cross-pieces, forward and cross-cords, showing that it
was made of wood and also cording. It was also covered with
a cushion (Āstaraṇa) and a pillow (Upabarhaṇa), had a seat
(Āsāda) and a support (Upaśraya). Similar seats are described
in the Kauṣītaki Upaniṣad^4 and the Jaiminīya Brāhmaṇa.^5
The seat for the king at the royal consecration is described in
very similar terms in the Aitareya Brāhmaṇa, ^6 where the
height of the feet is placed at a span, and the lengthwise and
cross-pieces are each to be a cubit, while the interwoven part
(vivayana) is to be of Muñja grass, and the seat of Udumbara
wood. In another passage of the Atharvaveda^7 Lanman
seems to take the seat meant as a ‘long reclining chair.’ There
also a cushion (Upadhāna) and coverlet (Upavāsana) are
mentioned. The Śatapatha Brāhmaṇa repeatedly describes
the Āsandī in terms showing that it was an elaborate seat. In
one place^8 it is said to be made of Khadira wood, perforated
(vi-tṛṇṇā), and joined with straps (vardhra-yutā) like that of the
Bhāratas. At the Sautrāmaṇī rite^9 (an Indra sacrifice) the
seat is of Udumbara wood, is knee-high, and of unlimited
width and depth, and is covered with plaited reed-work. The
imperial seat^10 is to be shoulder-high, of Udumbara wood, and
wound all over with cords of Balvaja grass (Eleusina indica).
Elsewhere^11 the seat is a span high, a cubit in width and
depth, of Udumbara wood, and covered with reed-grass cords,
and daubed with clay.
