Vedic Reference
English
Dyutāna Māruta (‘descendant of the Maruts’) is the name
of a divine being invoked in the Vājasaneyi Saṃhitā^1 and
the Taittirīya Saṃhitā, ^2 and also mentioned in the Kāṭhaka
Saṃhitā.^3 In the Śatapatha^4 Brāhmaṇa the name is explained
to mean Vāyu, while in the Pañcaviṃśa Brāhmaṇa^5 he seems
to be regarded as the author of a Sāman (chant). He is
treated as a Ṛṣi by the Anukramaṇī, which credits him with
the authorship of a hymn of the Rigveda (viii. 96).
