Vedic Reference
English
Śvaśrū denotes ‘mother-in-law’ of the husband^1 as well as
of the wife.^2 She, together with her husband, if he became
unable to manage the family, ^3 fell under the daughter-in-law's
sway, but otherwise was entitled to regard.^4 The gambler in
the Rigveda^5 complains of his having lost the favour of his
wife's mother as one of the misfortunes brought upon him by
dicing.
