PARYAṄKA—A couch, a bedstead. Mānasāra, chap. XLIV. (named Śayana) : Bedsteads are meant for the use of deities, the twice-born and all other people : Devānāṁ cha dvi-jātīnāṁ varṇānāṁ śayanārthakam। (1). They are of two kinds—the small (bāla-paryaṅka) and the large (paryaṅka) (26, 28). The former is intended to be used by children and the latter by the grown up, the one being distinguished from the other by its size alone.
