    abhīpat Tatpur. m. (-n) (ved.) 1 A pond or any other place

    where water accumulates. 2 Favour, kindness. An option

    between both meanings is proposed by Sāyaṇa on Ṛgv.: abhī-

    pato vṛṣṭibhistarpayantam (Atharv.: abhīpato vṛṣṭyā tarpayantam),

    viz. abhīpata ānukūlyena i. e. abl. sing.; or abhīpato'bhiga-

    manavataḥ salilādhārān . taṭākādīn i. e. acc. plur.; the se-

    cond meaning (favour) reminds of anvīpa, but the first

    seems more congenial with the context. E. probably ap

    (an obsolete rad.; comp. āp) with abhi, kṛt aff. śatṛ.
