Vedic Reference

English

 Samrāj in the Rigveda^1 and later^2 means ‘superior ruler, 
‘sovereign, ’ as expressing a greater degree of power than ‘king’
(Rājan). In the Śatapatha Brāhmaṇa, ^3 in accordance with its
curious theory of the Vājapeya and Rājasūya,  the Samrāj is
asserted to be a higher authority than a king,  and to have
become one by the sacrifice of the Vājapeya. There is,  how-
ever,  no trace of the use of the word as ‘emperor’ in the sense
of an ‘overlord of kings, ’ probably because political conditions
furnished no example of such a status,  as for instance was
attained in the third century B.C. by Aśoka. At the same time
Samrāj denotes an important king like Janaka of Videha.^4 It
is applied in the Aitareya Brāhmaṇa^5 as the title of the eastern
kings. Cf. Rājya.
1) iii. 55,  7
 56,  5
 iv. 21,  1
 vi. 27,  8
viii. 19,  32.
2) Vājasaneyi Saṃhitā,  v. 32
 xiii. 35
xx. 5,  etc.
3) v. 1,  1,  13. Cf. xii. 8,  3,  4
xiv. 1,  3,  8.
4) Śatapatha Brāhmaṇa,  xi. 3,  2,  1. 6

 3,  1. Cf. Weber,  Über den Vājapeya,  8.
5) viii. 14,  2. 3. The other names are
given as follows: For the northerners
it is Virāj: for the southerners,  Svarāj
for the Satvants,  Bhoja: for the middle
people (Kuru-Pañcāla,  Vaśa,  and Uśī-
nara),  Rājan simply. This is probably
a sound tradition.
