apsas

Goldstücker Sanskrit-English Dictionary

☞ p. 224, col. 2.

apsas n. (-psaḥ) (ved.) The same as rūpa; esp. form, beauty.

E. Śākapūṇi, as quoted by Yāska, derives this word as a

Tatpur. from a neg. and psas (psā, probably uṇ. aff.

asun) and interprets it as meaning liter. ‘what ought to

be looked upon (ādarśanīya)’ or ‘what ought to be diffused’

i. e. manifest to sight ‘vyāpanīyaṃ vā spaṣṭaṃ darśanāya’; but in

the latter acceptation probably from ap (comp. the E. of

apta) and implying perhaps the meaning of īpsita.

Apsas. — This word usually refers to the body, meaning

‘front part.’¹ In one passage of the Rigveda,² however, the

adjective ‘with a long front part’ (dīrghāpsas) is applied to the

chariot (Ratha). [Footnote] 1) See Pischel, Vedische Studien, 1,

308-313; 2, 245, 246. [Footnote] 2) i. 122, 15. Cf. Roth, St. Peters-
