It seems best to regard it with Whitney² as the seat proper; Aufrecht,³ Zimmer,⁴ and Roth⁵ render it as the ‘cushion for the seat,’ but that is sufficiently described by the word Āstaraṇa. - [Previous: v1.c3.s1.311](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.macdonell-keith-1912.v1.c3.s1.311) - [Next: v1.c3.s1.313](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.macdonell-keith-1912.v1.c3.s1.313) - [Up: v1.c3.s1](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.macdonell-keith-1912.v1.c3.s1) ## Linked texts (1) - [Atharvavedasaṃhitā](https://indike.org/pramana/in.veda.samhita.atharva.15.3.8) — Atharvan & Aṅgiras, Sanskrit --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.macdonell-keith-1912.v1.c3.s1.312](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.reference.macdonell-keith-1912.v1.c3.s1.312) · Pramāṇa
