Vedic Reference
EnglishUpānasa is in the Atharvaveda^1 opposed to Akṣa, and must
mean something like ‘the body of the wagon, ’ though Sāyaṇa
suggests that it signifies either a ‘granary’ or a ‘wagon full of
grain.’ In the Rigveda, ^2 where the word occurs only once, its
sense is doubtful. Pischel^3 explains the form which occurs
there not as an adjective, but as an infinitive.
1) ii. 14, 2.
2) x. 105, 4.
3) Vedische Studien, 1, 197.
Cf. Bloomfield, Hymns of the Athar-
vaveda, 301

the Atharvaveda, 56.
