    abhadra Tatpur. m. f. n. (-draḥ-drā-dram) Unpropitious, inau-

    spicious; e. g. in the Bhāgav.-Pur.: apyabhadraṃ na yuṣmā-

    bhirbhārgavasya viceṣṭitam . vyaktaṃ kenāpi nastasya kṛtamāśramadūṣa-

    ṇam; or Āpastamba (as quoted by Kullūka): nābhadramabhadraṃ

    brūyātpuṇyaṃ praśastamiti brūyāt (scil. a Brāhmaṇa); in Manu

    4. 139. the first word bhadra is used euphemistically, implying

    there abhadra, for a Brāhmaṇa, even if he has something

    unfavourable to say, should always use an auspicious word;

    a similar euphemism is implied by bhadra in the word pañcabhadra

    (m. f. n.) ‘profligate’, for the compound means one who

    has five inauspicious marks on chest, back &c. (Vyāḍi on

    Hemach.: pañca bhadrāṇi kalyāṇānyasya pañcabhadraḥ . abhadro vi-

    parītalakṣaṇayā bhadramukhavat). E. a neg. and bhadra.
