v1.c3.s20.579

Ni-ṣaṅgathi¹ or Niṣaṅga-dhi² is found in the Yajurveda Saṃhitās. If the second form of the word is correct, the sense may be ‘sheath of a sword’ (niṣaṅga), as it is taken by the St. Petersburg Dictionary, but probably the first form is the correct one, the word then having the same meaning as Niṣaṅgin.
