    abhiplava Tatpur. m. (-vaḥ) A religious act, forming part of

    the sacrifice gavāmayana (q. v.) and consisting of ceremonies

    which last six days; the ceremony of the first and sixth of

    these days is called jyotis, of the second and fourth go,

    of the third and fifth āyus (Kalpavyākhyā: jyotirgaurā-

    yurgaurāyurjyotiriti ṣaḍaho'bhiplava ityucyate); the abhiplava

    recurs several times at the various stages of the Gavā-

    mayana and bears its name, according to a legend of the

    Śatapatha-Br., because the Ādityās, rivalling with the Angi-

    rasas in the precedence of getting into the paradise, jumped

    into it by means of the hymns which occur in this ceremony

    ‘athādityāśca ha vā aṅgirasaśca . ubhaye prājāpatyā aspardhanta

    vayaṃ pūrve svargaṃ lokameṣyāmo vayaṃ pūrva iti . ta ādityāḥ . ca-

    turbhi stomaiścaturbhiḥ pṛṣṭhairlaghubhiḥ sāmabhiḥ svargaṃ lokamabhyaplavanta

    yadabhyaplavanta tasmādabhiplavāḥ’. E. plu with abhi, kṛt aff. ap.
