Vedic Reference
English
Khṛgala, or, as the Paippalāda recension of the Atharvaveda^1
has it, Khugila, is an obscure expression found in two passages
only — once in the Rigveda, ^2 and once in the Atharvaveda.^1
In the former the meaning ‘crutch’ seems required
in the
latter Sāyaṇa glosses it by ‘armour’ (tanu-trāṇa), but the sense
is quite uncertain.
